Santa Clause is a series of cult Christmas classic films and they certainly won't be missing from our Christmas viewing list this year.

Santa Claus falls from "Scott's" roof, while his son "Charlie" is visiting him. Santa Claus vanishes mysteriously, however, only leaving his clothes and a note behind. The note states that whoever puts on his coat will automatically become the new Santa Claus. "Scott" decides to try the coat on for size, which is the beginning of a fabulous adventure to the North Pole for "Scott" and his son "Charlie"!

Santa Clause is played by Home Improvement star Tim Allen. Most people will know what he looks like today as he is still a highly successful actor and comedian! 

"Charlie" is played by Eric Lloyd (37). In the first film, he is still a little boy, in the second and third films, which were released in 2002 and 2006 respectively, he is a teenager.
