Jack Black Will Play Satan in Upcoming Christmas Movie

Actor, musician and comedian Jack Black will star as none other than the devil in the upcoming Christmas movie, Dear SantaThe comedy is from Bobby and Peter Farrelly, the duo behind Kingpin and There’s Something About Mary.

The film reportedly involves a young boy who accidentally writes a letter to Satan instead of Santa for Christmas. A common mistake, but this time, Satan (played by Black) actually shows.

Robert Timothy Smith (Good Girls), Keegan-Michael Key (Key & Peele), Brianne Howey (Ginny and Georgia) and more will round out the cast. The project does not currently have a release date.

This isn’t the first time the devil has appeared in a Jack Black film. In the 2006 film Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny about a satirical heavy metal band, Satan (played by Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl) challenges Black and Gass to a “rock-off.”
