Eight years after getting a crash course in the fine art of personifying Christmas,
Tim Allen returns as
Kris Kringle's replacement in this sequel to the 1994 hit
The Santa Clause. While
Scott Calvin (
Allen) initially had mixed feelings when he became the new
Santa Claus, after eight years on the job he's come to enjoy being Father Christmas, and he and the Elves are looking forward to another holiday season when things begin going a bit wrong.
Scott finds he's becoming less and less "
Santa-like," and his son
Charlie (
Eric Lloyd) has become difficult enough to land on the official "Naughty" list.
Scott discovers most of his problems stem from an obscure passage in his contract with the North Pole which decrees that he has to find a
Mrs. Claus.
Scott has little choice but to start dating, but he soon learns that when you're a big guy from the North Pole who lacks conventional employment, single women do not come running. In order to leave him more time to search for a wife,
Scott and the Elves create a duplicate
Santa to keep an eye on the shop; however, the "other"
Santa turns out to be more Naughty than Nice, and in time
Scott has to wrestle control of the North Pole away from his doppelganger.
Wendy Crewson,
Judge Reinhold, and
David Krumholtz also reprise their roles from
The Santa Clause.
