Jennifer Aniston will star in Olivia Wilde’s Universal comedy “Naughty,” playing a single mother named Mallory, whose “ex-trashbag” is Santa Claus.

Peter Dinklage takes on the role of the King of Christmas.

Wilde, fresh off the success of her latest directorial effort “The Invite,” directs “Naughty,” which centers on Mallory, whose “only hope of securing custody of her son from her gas-lit garbage bag ex is to find Santa Claus and convince him to testify at her divorce hearing.”

Jimmy Warden (“Cocaine Bear,” “Borderline”) wrote the screenplay and original screenplay. LuckyChap, Wilde and Warden will produce.

Universal has dated the film for a theatrical release of November 5, 2027. The casting update was first reported by Deadline.
