The upcoming documentary I Am Santa Claus will be making its public debut in less than a month’s time, and CraveOnline got the chance to chat with actor Mick Foley at New York Comic Con 2014 about his role in the film.
Interestingly enough, Foley wasn’t too keen on playing Santa at first, as having his hair bleached was a major hurdle for him to get over. However, after the process was complete and he finally put on that red suit, he felt like he “earned the right” to play the character and truly was Mr. Claus.
Foley then went on to explain why this documentary is a piece of work that can be enjoyed by anyone, especially those who love the holidays and can appreciate a solid narrative. “I think just people who like good stories or documentaries are going to be surprised,” he said.
I Am Santa Claus will have a “short theatrical release” on November 4 and will later be made available on iTunes, DVD, and Netflix on November 11. In the meantime, be sure to watch the full video interview below, where Foley shares his all-time favorite Santa Claus movie moments.
