We may be more than a month away from Christmas, but families everywhere are already getting into the holiday spirit and taking advantage of Netflix’s roster of seasonal fare. New films like Love Hard are doing well with a lot of adults that have Netflix subscriptions. On Netflix Kids profiles, however, a couple of beloved holiday films from last couple of years are dominating the Top 10, and both happen to star the one and only Kurt Russell.
The Christmas Chronicles, starring Russell as Santa Claus, arrived on Netflix in 2018 and was an instant hit. The Christmas Chronicles 2 was released just two years later and continued the franchise’s success. Now, as we head into the second half of November, kids and families are turning to Russell’s Santa to prepare them for the holidays.
