"You just messed up big time, Fatman!!!!" Saban Films has released an official trailer for a wacky fun new action-comedy called Fatman, which is a reference to the slang word for what people sometimes call Santa Claus. Which is exactly what this is about (yes, really). Mel Gibson (yes, really) stars as Chris Cringle, a "rowdy, unorthodox Santa Claus" who is upset fighting his business going downhill. To save his declining business, Cringle is forced into a partnership with the U.S. military. Making matters worse, he gets locked into a deadly battle of wits against a highly skilled assassin, hired by a precocious 12-year-old after receiving a lump of coal in his stocking. This also stars Walton Goggins, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Shaun Benson, Chance Hurstfield, Jordan Blais, Deborah Grover, and Paulino Nunes. Yes this looks as fun as it sounds, in a good way. And honestly I must admit I love the tagline, too: 'Tis the season to get even.
Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Eshom Nelms & Ian Nelms's Fatman, direct from YouTube:
