THR has confirmed Shirley MacLaine has been added to the ever growing cast of Disney's 2019 Christmas-themed film Nicole. In which, Anna Kendrick will be playing the titled character, Santa's daughter, & have to take the family business after daddy retires & brother gets cold feet. Not sure why there has to be a brother. That feels a little like an unneeded blow, she could've just been the only child or the oldest. Anyway, MacLaine will join the cast that currently also consists of Billy Eichner & Bill Hader as the elf that helped raise Nicole, Polly. Even though this is shaping up to be an awesome comedic line up I still don't know if I'm that excited for this. Someone has to find a new way to do a Christmas movie every year, so why not Disney this time? I guess my main problem is if this is really funny, will it get ran into the ground ala Tim Allen's The Santa Clause with multiple sequels that eventually damage the firsts magic? Time will tell. What do y'all think about this? Is there anyone who's just jumping up & down for this? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
