Peyton Manning interviews to become new ‘Santa Claus’ on Disney+ show

Disney released a commercial for its new The Santa Clauses series over the weekend and it featured an appearance from a former NFL quarterback.

In the commercial, Santa Claus (Tim Allen) announces that he’s going to retire and he begins the process of interviewing potential successors.

One of the candidates for the job is … Peyton Manning?

That’s right!

“Can’t wait to rub this in Brady’s face!” Manning says in his interview with Santa, who asks the former QB for his best “ho-ho-ho.”

“Ho-ho-homaha-homaha!” Manning says. “I called a little audible there.”

Santa’s not impressed, so Manning appeals that he can also sing.

“No, Brady can sing,” Santa quips back.

It’s no surprise that Manning is involved with a Disney+ show given that he’s already involved with numerous Disney-owned projects including “Peyton’s Places” and the “ManningCast” for Monday Night Football.

Manning retired from the NFL after winning Super Bowl 50 with the Denver Broncos following the 2015 season.
