It won’t be Christmas without a holiday film and with Red One arriving on Prime Video it will set the mood for a festive and action-packed Christmas. The film sees Santa Claus getting kidnapped just before the holidays forcing the North Pole’s Head of Security to team up with a bounty hunter to save Christmas.

Holiday Vibes

The electrifying action comedy Red One takes audiences on a whirlwind trip into a hidden world of mythology and magic, long hidden from prying eyes. Action superstars Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans lead a star-studded cast on an unforgettable action-packed adventure into the mythological world, liberally seasoned with holiday laughs.

Saving Christmas

For the first time in history, the unthinkable has happened: Santa’s (J.K. Simmons) legendary North Pole outpost has been breached and the man himself has been kidnapped. Callum Drift (Johnson), Commander of the E.L.F. and head of security for “Red One” (Santa’s code name), springs into action along with Jack O’Malley (Evans), the world’s best tracker and the man responsible for unwittingly revealing Santa’s secret location.

As the mismatched duo criss-crosses the globe to bring Santa home in time for his legendary annual run, they will have to confront the most treacherous of Yuletide dangers, from Christmas villains Krampus (Kristofer Hivju) and Grýla (Kiernan Shipka) to a trio of sinister snowmen.

Holiday Tale

Directed by Jake Kasdan (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle) and written by producer Chris Morgan (Fast & Furious franchise) from an original story by producer Hiram Garcia (Black Adam), Red One reinvents the Christmas story with an epic, cross-cultural thrill ride through a magical world.

The film also stars Lucy Liu, Bonnie Hunt, Nick Kroll and Wesley Kimmel. Check it out as Red One premieres exclusively on Prime Video on 12 December 2024.
