Kelsey Grammer will reprise the role of Ebenezer Scrooge for the indie satire An American Carol, directed by Scary Movie 4 helmer David Zucker, says Variety.
Grammer, who previously played Dickens’ character in the NBC-Hallmark production of “A Christmas Carol” in 2004, will play a modern-day Ebenezer in new film, which lampoons contemporary American culture, particularly Hollywood.
Zucker wrote the screenplay along with Myrna Sokoloff. Production is scheduled to start Feb. 28 in Los Angeles.
