A first-look photo has been released that gives fans a peek at Tracy Morgan (SNL, 30 Rock) in the role of the Easter Bunny in the upcoming second season of the Disney+ series, The Santa Clauses. The new season features a number of magical characters interacting with Tim Allen’s Santa, including not just Morgan but also a “Mad Santa” played by Eric Stonestreet.
The series’ official synopsis reads:
“In the second season, the Calvin family is back in the North Pole as Scott Calvin continues his role as Santa Claus after retirement plans were thwarted when failing to find a worthy successor in season one. Now that Scott and his family have successfully saved Christmas, Scott turns his focus towards training his son Cal to eventually take over the ‘family business’ as Santa Claus.”
