A little girl counting down to Christmas. A dad whose nose is buried in his work, missing all the holiday magic. When Mari’s wish list mysteriously disappears and is replaced by a single mitten, the adventure begins. Together with her fearless grandma, Mari and her oblivious father set off on a thrilling chase to track down Santa himself. Back at the North Pole, Stubby the Wishlist Elf is in full panic mode. That lost mitten? It could lead the curious family straight to Santa’s hidden workshop—and he’ll do whatever it takes to stop them before the secret is uncovered.

More About This Film

The film titled "Santa's Workshop" (2026) appears to be a conflation of two distinct entities based on current available information. The most prominent reference is the 2026 Dior Christmas animated short film, officially titled "Christian Dior's Colorful Christmas," which features an all-star Mandarin voice cast including Yu Shi, Deng Wei, and Dilraba Dilmurat. This hand-drawn animation, directed by Sylvain Chomet, was released in November 2026 and serves as a luxury brand marketing piece rather than a standalone theatrical movie.

Alternatively, there is no widely recognized feature-length motion picture titled specifically "Santa's Workshop" scheduled for release in 2026. The title strongly evokes the classic 1932 Disney Silly Symphony cartoon "Santa's Workshop," which remains a staple of holiday animation history. It is possible that the query refers to a re-release, a streaming documentary about the production of early Disney animations, or a new project currently under development without public casting or plot details confirmed at this time.

  • The 2026 Dior short film uses hand-drawn animation techniques reminiscent of mid-20th-century cartoons, aligning with the aesthetic of the original 1932 Disney short.
  • No major studio has announced a new live-action or CGI feature film with the exact title "Santa's Workshop" for the 2026 calendar year.
  • The 1932 original "Santa's Workshop" was one of the first animated shorts to depict Santa Claus reading letters from children, establishing a narrative template still used today.

Where to Watch

For the 2026 Dior animated short "Christian Dior's Colorful Christmas," distribution is limited to official brand channels and select festivals. For historical context, the 1932 Disney original is widely available.
