Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) is making a comeback in the new Disney+ show “The Santa Clauses.” After being Santa Claus for almost 30 years, Scott decides that maybe it’s time for a change. Since Christmas is losing popularity (and its magic on kids and adults) Santa considers maybe it’s time for a new Santa to take his place. The job of being Santa is very demanding, so Scott finds a way to retire from his duties as Santa Claus. 

Now he’s on a mission to find a new jolly goer to take his place. Devin Bright plays “Noel,” one of Santa’s elves. 

“Noel just loves Santa, he loves Christmas, so Noel just kind of embodies that love of Christmas,” said Bright.

In the show, Noel embodies the elf persona in every appearance he has. He is the elf version of Christmas spirit. This whole show is a world of whimsy and just straight holiday cheer.
