No matter how busy Santa Claus may be during Christmas, for the rest of his year, he is also busy being featured in movies.

Through time, there have been stellar movies that have given much emphasis to his role in the culture of every Christian society.

Here we feature the top movies that featured Santa, whether he was at his worst or at his best.

Edward Asner has played the role several times, but one of his best modern day versions was for the movie 'Elf.' In the movie, the lead role was played by the comedian Will Ferrell playing the role of Buddy.

Jim Broadbent as the voice for the very doubtful version of Santa in the current animation 'Arthur Christmas.' The young Arthur was played by James McAvoy who becomes the heir to the sleigh due to his overwhelming warm heart for Christmas.

Jan Rubes plays a pure-hearted Santa who tries hard to rekindle the true Christmas spirit in a family that has hard luck on life. His European accent fits the bleak element of the movie called 'One Magic Christmas.'

Richard Attenborough for 'Miracle on 34th Street' will forever be marked with a one-of-a-kind charm. This is one Kringle you would not want to stumble upon for all that violent streaks of temper.

David Huddleston in 'Santa Claus: The Movie' seems to be the perfect fit for the role with his huge physique and the jolliness that comes naturally for him as a comedian.

Check out pictures of these guys who portrayed the beloved role.
