The Santa Clause kid then and now: What Charlie star Eric Lloyd looks like all grown up

Now 31, the former actor played Charlie Calvin in all three Santa Clause movies; the first of which was released in 1994.

It was 2002 before the next one was released, and 2006 when final chapter the Escape Clause found its way to cinemas.

Calvin hasn’t really acted much at all since the late 1990s, outside of those two films; although he did have a guest role in ER.

Fans on Twitter have been sharing snaps of him in adulthood:

Recently, he partnered with college roommate Tyler Payne to open LP Studios in Glendale, California.

It’s a little known fact that Eric knocked his two front teeth out during production, causing a minor headache for bosses.

“The montage sequence where they’re getting [Scott Calvin] ready for his first Christmas, there’s a scene where we’re dancing down the hallway,” he said, according to ABC.

“That scene had to get pushed up in production because I had knocked my teeth out the night before.

“I was getting to that age where my teeth were falling out, so my bottom two teeth throughout the whole film are all fake teeth, because my bottom two teeth fell out naturally at the beginning of the film.”

He added: “There’s no real baby pictures of me or adolescent pictures of me without my teeth, because I always had fake teeth for acting.”
