In 2014 Peter and Bobby Farrelly They wanted to return to one of the indisputable classics of their filmography, and once again recruiting Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels stood up Two even dumber fools. Two years then they had also committed to direct Dear Santaa script I had just bought Fox with the idea that both brothers would take it to the movies. But something happened with Two even dumber fools. The experience must not have been very rewarding, and from then on Peter and Bobby began directing alone.
The project of Dear Santa was canceled while the Farrellys embarked on a completely new phase of their career. Perhaps the most drastic case was that of Peter, since his first job without Bobby was Green Book: all a Oscar for Best Filmnothing less. Peter then returned to comedy with I’m in charge of the beer and the recent Ricky Stanickyreleased this same year with John Cena and Zac Efron (and possibly the best comedy of 2024). Bobby, for his part, has taken things more calmly, and the only film he has directed in these ten years is Champions: he remake of the Champions of Javier Fesser.
Likewise, it seemed that both of them were doing well, having finished their work together (reminiscent to a certain extent of what happened with the Coen brothers), but here it is World of Reel echoes that the project Dear Santa has risen Searchlight Pictures Greenlit the film again with the idea of the Farrellys reuniting to direct it, and filming began in May 2023.
It had to be stopped shortly after due to the strike of actors and scriptwriters, but the film silently continued ahead and now we find out that it is planned to be released directly in streaming (as has been the fate of I’m in charge of the beer and, sadly, Ricky Stanicky).
Dear Santa this would be released this way November 25 in Paramount+so we do not know how we can see it in Spain. They are also ideal dates for a film like this, since Dear Santa It is a Christmas comedy, and with considerable hooliganism as we can sense from its official synopsis. It’s the one that follows.
“Liam, a friendly sixth grader, writes to Santa Claus asking him to prove that he is real. But Liam is dyslexic and accidentally sends his letter to Satan, who shows up at Liam’s house, excited to receive his first letter from fanboy and wanting a little bit of Liam’s soul.”
That’s where it is. Let’s hope that Dear Santa can make its way to our country, and be a little better than that Red One of Dwayne Johnson who also wants to congratulate us on the holidays in advance.
