Parents, check your kids' spelling when they write their letters to Santa to make sure it doesn't end up in the wrong hands. In "Dear Santa," a young boy (Robert Timothy Smith) writes his letter and puts it in the mailbox — but he's not the best speller and unknowingly summons Satan (Jack Black) instead of Santa Claus. Black ("School of Rock," "Nacho Libre") reunites with the Farrelly brothers – director Bobby Farrelly and co-writer Peter Farrelly – since starring in their 2001 comedy "Shallow Hal." "It's a funny Satan, sort of how 'Damn Yankees' had a funny Satan, and you need someone who is innately likeable and not threatening, and Jack Black is that," Peter said. "He's kind of similar how he was in 'School of Rock,' where he's a little edgy to the kids but he's also appealing to adults. It doesn't work without him. It's probably the first time we ever got the first person we offered a role to." "Jack was our first pick, and he was the right pick," Bobby said. "Dear Santa," also starring Keegan-Michael Key, Brianne Howey, Hayes MacArthur and P.J. Byrne, is now streaming on Paramount+ and available to buy or rent digitally.
