When the Jake Kasdan-directed film began production last year, Johnson published a social media post reading: "It's beginning to look a lot like CHRISTMAAAS. Officially kicking off production for our CHRISTMAS franchise film titled, RED ONE with my guy @chrisevans.”

"Chris and I have been waiting to make a Christmas movie our entire careers and now finally, the trouble begins," he added.

Johnson previously released a statement upon the film's announcement, in which he said: "Hold my Mana, because this is exciting. Our Seven Bucks is very bullish on our partnership with Amazon Studios; underpinned with some innovation, some pioneering and a lot of positive energy and passion.

"I've been very impressed with [Amazon Studios head] Jen Salke and her team's vision and ambition to create an enormous, fun and unique Red One holiday universe for families around the world to enjoy."
