Concerning the plot of The Christmas Chronicles 2, fans will have to wait a little bit longer to find out what’s in store for Team Santa in the sequel, as Netflix has only given us the broad strokes of the story far. Based on the information provided in Netflix’s press release announcing the project, The Christmas Chronicles 2 will presumably take place a year or two after the original film. It will also find Darby Camp’s Kate unexpectedly hanging out with Russell’s Santa Claus again, and facing off against Dennison’s devious Belsnickel in hopes of saving the Christmas spirit from certain doom.
As far as what other narratives might be included in The Christmas Chronicles 2, well, we obviously don’t have much to go on so far, but we’d lay heavy odds that we’ll get to know the Pierces a little bit better in the upcoming sequel. It’s a safe bet that we’ll spend a little extra time in The North Pole this time around as well — which will be welcome news to those who absolutely adored the original film’s slightly off-kilter take on Christmas elves. And hopefully we’ll get a glimpse of that cranky Belsnickel’s origins, too.
However The Christmas Chronicles 2 plays out, holiday season 2020 can’t get here fast enough. Here’s hoping Russell and the rest of The Christmas Chronicles 2 cast and crew can deliver the goods for a second time next Christmas.
