Farrelly Bros. on Reuniting With Jack Black for ‘Dear Santa’, ‘Dumb and Dumber’ Sequel Dreams and Why They’ll Always Defend ‘Shallow Hal’


Peter and Bobby Farrelly talk about their new Christmas movie with Jack Black and a potential "Dumb and Dumber" sequel.

The Farrelly brothers have had a long career both collaborating (“ Dumb and Dumber,” “There’s Something About Mary”) and helming projects individually (Peter’s “Green Book,” Bobby’s “Champions”). They’re coming together again for the holidays with the new Paramount+ film “ Dear Santa,” a naughty but sweet Christmas confection starring Jack Black as Satan, who is accidentally summoned by a boy named Liam (Robert Timothy Smith) who can’t spell when writing a letter to Kris Kringle. When we were doing “Green Book,” we were shooting in December, and Viggo Mortensen rented out a movie theater to show us “Elf.” He brought the whole cast and crew.
