For most Netflix users in countries like Canada, Japan, South Africa, India, and the United Kingdom, you’re receiving new Universal movies around 2 and a half years following their theatrical release. That means you won’t see it on Netflix until at least 2024. Fleming, Mike Jr (March 3, 2020). "Universal Lands Violent Night Pitch By Sonic The Hedgehog Scribes Pat Casey & Josh Miller". Deadline Hollywood. Violent Night is a 2022 American Christmas action comedy film directed by Tommy Wirkola and written by Pat Casey and Josh Miller. It follows Santa Claus (portrayed by David Harbour) as he fights mercenaries who have taken a wealthy family hostage in their home. [6] The film also stars John Leguizamo, Alex Hassell, and Beverly D'Angelo. It’s got more than a few classic action hero-style one-liners that are reminiscent of more than a few Arnold Schwarzenegger movies. This is also a very different interpretation of Father Christmas than anything we’ve seen before. The tagline, “you better watch out” has a whole new meaning. Set on Christmas Eve, it follows a well-off family preparing to celebrate the holiday season. However, their celebrations are cut short when a team of mercenaries storms into their property and holds everyone hostage, demanding millions of dollars from the family in exchange for their life and freedom. Meanwhile, Santa crawls out of the family’s chimney to take treats and give away presents.

Trailer The inclusion of subtitles for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (SDH) is determined on a title-by-title and season-by-season basis, with careful consideration given to the commercial viability of bringing a TV series to the home entertainment market. While we endeavour to include SDH where possible, the costs involved in creating and authoring are calculated on a per-minute basis and unfortunately we are often faced with such prohibitive costs to include SDH that it can limit our capacity to release the product at all. It is Universal's policy to add English subtitles to 100% of our new feature film (non-TV) DVD product. Central European nations are currently receiving new Universal movies within 3 months of their theatrical debuts based on the addition of The 355 to the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romanic, and Slovakia earlier this year.
