Eric Stonestreet says if asked, he’d succeed Tim Allen as Santa Claus

Disney+

Modern Family veteran Eric Stonestreet can be seen as the Mad Santa in the second season of the Disney+ series The Santa Clauses. And while Tim Allen has played Scott Calvin/Santa Claus for more than 30 years, Stonestreet tells ABC Audio he’d grab the bag if offered.

Well, listen, I love playing in this world. And Tim Allen is Santa Claus for so many of us and will always be Santa Claus,” the actor says.

“But if [showrunner] Jack [Burditt], Disney and Tim or anyone asked if I was interested, my answer will always be yes to be in this world some way or somehow.”

Both seasons of The Santa Clauses are now streaming on Disney+, as are Allen’s three Santa Clause films.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News.
