Anna Kendrick to play a female Santa Claus, *sunglasses drop* deal with it

JoBloJoBlo

It seems Anna Kendrick is going to be starring in a new Disney family film (tentatively) titled NICOLE, about "Santa’s daughter who is forced to take over the family business when her father decides to retire and brother ends up getting cold feet prior to his first big Christmas Eve flight." It is being written by MISS CONGENIALITY scribe Marc Lawrence, who is also set to direct.

Look, even though she is not an actual gener-swapped Santa (and just his daughter), I can still just imagine the comments section going crazy because none other than a GIRL (yuck!) is going to be playing SANTA CLAUS (whaaaaaaaaat)!? I mean, "aren't you just outraged at PC-culture running amuck?" I can hear them saying, "Next thing you know, they're going to try to have females – of all people – with equal representation in the cinema (instead of just 27% of speaking parts), and possibly even *gasp* headlining more films! What's next, gender-swapping horror icons and Marvel heroes? The madness, THE HORROR!!!

But what do you Schmoes think of this news, honestly? And I love you guys, I really do, but for the small percentage of you that don't like me (which is fair, I am an asshole), I eagerly await my customary "SJW", "white knight", "cuck", and "beta" non-insults in the comments section below. I feed on your sad, angry tears *sluuuuuurp*. For the rest of you <3.

Also no release date has been set yet, but you can be rest assured it will come out around Christmas time. Or right after Halloween, as that seems to be when Christmas starts now, at least according to every f*cking store ever.
