A new take on a classic Christmas story, “Hot Girl Winter,” featuring rising star Jason Mimms, has made its much-awaited debut on Tubi. This modern Christmas tale is beautifully crafted by director Patricia Cuffie-Jones and scriptwriter Barbara Zagrodnik, who collectively breathe fresh life into the traditional holiday genre.
Jason Mimms is the name resonating in the realm of entertainment these days. A young talent blossoming with potential, Mimms stars as Nick Claus or Santa in this unique festive feature. Alongside him is Golden Brooks, embodying the character of Mrs. Jess Claus, Santa’s adventurous wife who steps out of the North Pole and into the vibrant city of Miami for a much-deserved break.
The narrative delves into the unconventional side of Christmas, offering a unique glimpse into the domestic life of the Clauses. Mrs. Jes Claus has had it up to her pointy elf hat with her workaholic husband’s missing-in-action status, especially during their annual vacation. An act of spontaneity leads her to the sunny beaches of Miami, rekindling her friendship with Tamira, played by the phenomenal Schelle Purcell.
This isn’t your typical Christmas story. Mrs Claus has a special power of perceiving people’s naughtiness or their good deeds, just like her husband. Amidst the holiday beats that ring through their heads, she also finds time to dance with other men, much to the chagrin of her husband miles away in the frosty North. One such man is Andy, portrayed by Danny Pardo, whose heart is broken by this jovially mischievous Mrs. Claus, leading to unwanted chaos at a friend’s charity event.

But let’s not forget De’Variyay Harris, who brings an added layer of complexity and interest to the story by playing Kris, the son of Santa and Mrs. Claus. His role in bridging his parents’ wintery wonderland and the vibrant nightlife of Miami adds a different flavor to the festive narrative.
Just when things are about to get out of hand, Mr. Claus or Santa, lumbers into action. Mimms’ performance of the red-suited figure deciding to wear a completely different hat and fly down to Miami to set matters straight brings warmth to the narrative. There’s wit, there’s charm, and there’s a surprising side to Santa that audiences perhaps never thought they’d see.
In keeping with Mimms’s mantra of celebrating the significant as well as the nuanced moments – “Celebrate the big, celebrate the small, celebrate each moment one step at a time,” Hot Girl Winter does exactly that. It puts a spotlight on the empowering journey of Mrs. Claus, who dares to step out of her comfort zone and, hence, evolves into a character audiences will admire and root for.
“Hot Girl Winter” allows audiences to see a different side of Christmas through the eyes of Mimms and Brooks, convincingly challenging traditional perspectives. This holiday movie embraces the spirit of celebrating life at the moment, whether it’s in the snowy North Pole or the vibrant city of Miami.
