In a nostalgic look back at the beloved 1994 Christmas classic “The Santa Clause,” we explore the journeys of its cast members nearly three decades later. With the film’s charm still resonating with audiences, many are curious about what became of its stars.
Tim Allen, who portrayed Scott Calvin, was 41 during filming. Now 69, he continues to thrive in Hollywood, recently reprising his role in the 2022 miniseries “The Santa Clauses.” Known for his stand-up comedy and iconic voice as Buzz Lightyear in the “Toy Story” franchise, Allen’s career spans over 50 films and shows.
Charlie Calvin, Scott’s young son, was played by 8-year-old Eric Lloyd, who is now 36. Lloyd has appeared in nearly 40 roles since then, including a recent cameo in “The Santa Clauses,” where he once again took on the character of Charlie.
Wendy Crewson, who played Laura Miller, has remained active in the industry, accumulating around 150 credits, including a recent role in “Pretty Hard Cases.” At 66, she continues to impress audiences with her performances.
Judge Reinhold, known for his role as Dr. Neil Miller, has garnered over 110 acting credits since the film. Now 65, he is set to reprise his role as Billy Rosewood in the upcoming “Beverly Hills Cop 4.”
The film’s memorable elf, Bernard, was portrayed by David Krumholtz, who has built a successful career with over 120 credits, including a recent return to the role in “The Santa Clauses.” Now 44, Krumholtz remains a familiar face on screen.
Other cast members, such as Paige Tamata and Larry Brandenburg, have also continued their acting careers, while some, like Peter Boyle, who passed away in 2006, left a lasting legacy through their performances.
As the cast members of “The Santa Clause” reflect on their journeys since the film’s release, their continued contributions to the industry highlight the enduring impact of this holiday classic.
