"Chris and I have been waiting to make a Christmas movie our entire careers and now finally, the trouble begins," he continued.
"Red One is incredibly special to me and a story I've wanted to tell for years," added storywriter Hiram Garcia. "An epic, edge-of-your-seat, action adventure that takes beloved holiday mythology and turns it on its head."
