What Are 11 Famous Kids In Christmas Movies Doing Now?

Christmas spirit is in the air. We, movie and TV show fans, are looking forwards to this year’s merry holiday dramas and series. While waiting for them, we reminisce about the old-but-gold Christmas movies we used to gather and watch with our families under the flame tree. When we talk about Christmas movies, we talk about Santa, reindeer, elves, and naughty and nice children. We can not imagine what Christmas shows would be like without kid actors.

   
⁠

Nevertheless, “All children, except one, grow up.”, said Peter Pan. Those cute kid actors in Noel’s shows from the 2000s and before are all grown up. In the 2022 winter, let’s look at the “then and now” albums of Hollywood stars who used to appear in Boxing Day movies!

What are they doing now? How do they look? Here they are!
