Arnold Schwarzenegger Transforms Into Santa Claus for New Holiday Movie

The 77-year-old actor is filming 'The Man with the Bag,' a Christmas comedy about Santa's quest to retrieve his stolen magic bag.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, at 77, is taking on the role of Santa Claus in the holiday film 'The Man with the Bag,' currently being filmed in New York City.
The movie, directed by Adam Shankman and produced by Amazon MGM Studios, follows Santa teaming up with a thief from his naughty list to recover his stolen magic bag and save Christmas.
Fans have expressed mixed reactions to Schwarzenegger's transformation, praising his festive look but noting visible signs of aging and slower movement in recent public appearances.
This marks Schwarzenegger's return to holiday films since 1996's 'Jingle All the Way,' with co-star Alan Ritchson joining him in the family-friendly comedy.
The film does not yet have a confirmed release date but is expected to bring festive cheer and a unique take on the holiday genre.
