The Last Christmas by Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan has been optioned by Hollywood Gang Production.
The novel revolves around Santa Claus, who turns his back on Christmas and goes into seclusion after nuclear war has destroyed the world. When the North Pole gets attacked, Santa must battle zombies and renegades to save the remaining survivors, and ultimately, the holiday.
This book was a big hit last year in the bookstores, and if the movie is done correctly, could be a big hit for an upcoming holiday season as well. No word on release date, but Craig J. Flores will be the executive poducer, with Gianni Nunnari producing.
