Santa Claus is comin' to town at least one more time. Monday, Violent Night director Tommy Wirkola confirmed a sequel for the David Harbour vehicle is already in the works as the two sides are in talks to finalize deals ahead of filming. Given it's still early in the process, as Wirkola says, a script is just in the beginning days.
Wirkola will be developing the sequel with Pat Casey and Josh Miller, the writers behind the first film."We have time to really crack the script and figure out the story," the filmmaker added."And we have some ideas, me and Pat and Josh and the producers, we've been talking about where we want to take it and what we want to see."
"There's stuff we left on the floor like the North Pole, Mrs. Claus, the elves," Wirkola concluded. "But story-wise I think we have a really, really cool idea that expands on the world and scope, but still keeping that tone that we love from the first one."
Hopefully more violent than the first one!
