We know it's only November, but as soon the pumpkin's started to disappear earlier this month, Christmas came flying in like Saint Nick on his sleigh. 

And to kick 'the most wonderful time year' off with a bang, Netflix are this Thursday releasing The Christmas Chronicles, which stars Kurt Russell in the red suit.

Here's a quick synopsis: siblings Kate and Teddy Pierce hatch a scheme to capture Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. When the plan goes awry, the kids join forces with a somewhat jolly Saint Nick and his loyal elves to save the holiday before it's too late.

Have a look:

Chris Columbus, the filmmaker behind Harry Potter and Mrs. Doubtfire, produces the Netflix original feature, and we have to admit, Santa's looking pretty slick. But will he live up to Tim Allen's The Santa Clause character? We think he'll give it a good shot!!

Maria's Telly also takes a look at the news of a Ghostbusters reboot, and the confirmation of the Peaky Blinders movie going into production.
