Project Summary

Naughty is gearing up for production at Universal Pictures, with Olivia Wilde directing from a screenplay by Jimmy Warden. The holiday comedy stars Jennifer Aniston as Mallory, a mother embroiled in a custody battle, and Peter Dinklage as Santa Claus. LuckyChap is producing alongside Wilde and Warden. The project originated from Warden's spec script, which sparked a bidding war in 2023. Wilde is coming off the critical success of The Invite, her A24 relationship comedy that won a Sundance bidding war. Production is expected to begin in August 2026, with Universal targeting a November 2027 theatrical release. The film has been described as a blend of comedy and drama, mixing fantasy with emotional realism around the custody-battle premise.
