Tim Allen returns as a regular guy-turned-Jolly Old Elf in the second sequel to the 1994 hit
The Santa Clause.
Scott Calvin (
Tim Allen), who doubles as
Santa Claus, has settled into his home at the North Pole with his new wife,
Carol (
Elizabeth Mitchell), and is preparing for another Christmas when he receives a visitor --
Jack Frost (
Martin Short), the cold-weather sprite who has been sent to help out
St. Nick by
Mother Nature (
Aisha Tyler) and
Father Time (
Peter Boyle) after making a scene at a meeting of the Council of Legendary Figures. However, while
Jack is supposed to acting as an assistant to
Santa, he has a habit of making things go haywire, and as it happens this is no mistake --
Jack is hoping that an exasperated
Santa will quit his position so
Jack can take over and finally have a holiday he can bend to his will. Meanwhile,
Scott has invited
Carol's parents,
Bud (
Alan Arkin) and
Sylvia (
Ann-Margaret), over for a long-promised visit, but since he needs to keep his other identity a secret, he and his elves are forced to go to great lengths to convince them that they're actually in Northern Canada.
Wendy Crewson,
Judge Reinhold, and
Spencer Breslin also reprise their roles from the first two
Santa Clause films.
