Movie Synopsis
When Santa’s (Arnold Schwarzenegger) iconic red bag is stolen by a rogue elf with a grudge (Awkwafina), Christmas is suddenly at risk. With his biggest night of the year fast approaching, Santa recruits a thief (Alan Ritchson) from his Naughty List, who quickly assembles a crew of criminally skilled misfits to pull off the most unexpected heist of their lives, with a little help from elves and reindeer.
It’s Schwarzenegger’s first Christmas movie in 30 years, and this time he’s playing Santa himself. The cast also includes Jane Krakowski, Liza Koshy, Kyle Mooney and Ken Jeong. The Man with the Bag is rated PG and runs 111 minutes.

The screening is on Sunday, November 29, 2026 at the La Grange Theater. Doors open at 9am and the movie starts at 10am. Everyone gets a small drink and popcorn, and there’s a photobooth for fun holiday pictures before the show. Please arrive by 9:30am to check in for your seats.
