The music grinds to a halt, however, when viewers see Santa's face. Black may have St. Nick's rosy cheeks, but he also has horns.
"What? You were expecting someone else?" Black says, laughing. "Ho, ho, freakin' ho."
The film was created by the brothers behind Dumb and Dumber, Bobby and Peter Farrelly, and tells the story of a boy who accidentally writes his Christmas letter to Satan instead of Santa, Entertainment Weekly reported.
"We never wanted to make it a horror movie or something like that," Bobby Farrelly tells the outlet. "We wanted it to be comical. So it was a delicate ball of playing this iconic character but doing it in a way that the audience can have some fun with it. And Jack was the perfect guy."The film will stream on the platform beginning Nov. 25.
A full trailer will premiere Thursday.
