Arnold Schwarzenegger starred in one of our favorite Christmas movies from the 1990s, Jingle All The Way. He played an overworked dad, Howard Langston, who just wanted to provide the perfect Christ for his son, Jamie. Little Jamie wanted a Turbo Man action figure for Christmas, but Howard would stop at nothing to make that dream come true. He got into that familiar holiday snafu, unable to secure Turbo Man and fighting the throngs of desperate parents. Alongside Sinbad, it was a sweet story about a father’s unending love for his son. It’s been quite some time since we’ve seen Arnold in a Christmas movie, but he’s ready to get back into the holiday spirit.
