The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause is a 2006 American Christmas comedy film directed by Michael Lembeck. It is the third and final film in the Santa Clause film series following The Santa Clause and The Santa Clause 2.
The film stars Tim Allen returning as Scott Calvin/Santa Claus and Martin Short as Jack Frost. Allen and Short had previously worked together in the 1997 Disney comedy feature film, Jungle 2 Jungle. Most of the supporting actors from the first two films reprise their roles, with the exception of David Krumholtz, who played Bernard the Arch-elf. As a result of his absence, Curtis (played by Spencer Breslin), who was previously the Assistant Head Elf, has now been promoted to Bernard's former position. This was Peter Boyle's final film to be released before he died from cancer one month after its release. (The 2008 film All Roads Lead Home would be released posthumously.)
Its production was completed in February 2006. The film was released in theaters on November 3, 2006 in the US followed by a release date of November 24 for the UK. It received negative reviews from critics, with Rotten Tomatoes calling it "a bag of bland gags and dumb slapstick.". The DVD and Blu-ray were released on November 20, 2007 in the U.S. and November 12, 2007 for the UK.
