Post Malone Unwittingly Aids Jack Black in Satanic Corruption in Hilarious ‘Dear Santa’ Trailer: Watch
Written by djfrosty on November 7, 2024
In a new trailer for Paramount+’s new film Dear Santa, Post Malone dances with the devil — literally.
The two-minute teaser released Thursday (Nov. 7) opens with a young boy named Liam (played by Robert Timothy Smith) addressing a letter to Santa. However, as the narrator explains, he’s a “crappy speller” and accidentally writes “To: Satan” instead. Once summoned, the devil — played by a bearded Jack Black with pointy horns — promises to grant Liam three wishes.
But there’s a catch. “By the way, after you make your wishes I’m taking your soul,” Black tells his new companion. “Let me show you a few of the things I can do for you.”
One of those things, apparently, is getting Liam into the backstage area of a Post Malone concert, where the “Psycho” musician — seemingly under Black’s spell — greets the young fan like an old friend before inviting both Liam and Satan to join him on stage during the show. In addition to shots of Posty hamming it up for the crowd with the two main characters showing off their lasso dance moves, Black also introduces the little boy to gambling at a casino, making “snow angels” in a pile of cash and playing beer pong.

Dear Santa is set to premiere on Paramount+ Nov. 25. The cast also features Keegan-Michael Key, Brianne Howey, Hayes MacArthur, P.J. Byrne, Jaden Carson Baker and Kai Cech.
The movie isn’t the first onscreen project Posty has lent his star power to, with the 10-time Grammy nominee previously appearing in Road House, Wrath of Man and Spenser Confidential. Earlier this year, he also made a cameo in Jennifer Lopez’s This Is Me… Now: A Love Story.
The star’s latest film will arrive just a few months after his most recent album, F-1 Trillion, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. He’s also fresh off of a video of the year win at the 2024 VMAs thanks to his part in Taylor Swift’s visual for their “Fortnight” duet, which spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
