Why did Elvis never make a Christmas movie?
Why didn’t they ever make a Christmas movie. I would’ve thought Col. P would’ve been very willing to make one?

It does seem strange since the Col was obsessed with Christmas.
He even tried to get NBC to do a Christmas special but we all know what happened there.

Cast:
Santa - Lamar Fike
Little Elf Helper - Charlie Hodge
Grumpy Scrooge-type Character - Colonel Parker
Elvis could play himself & sing a few Xmas songs.
The soundtrack album would chart every year & eventually Priscilla could produce a 'duets' version & then the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra could do some new backings...

They could colourize some of those damn black and white kinescopes too.
And the CD sleeve could feature some tampered and reversed photos (wait, this has already happened !).

We can also sell the film and soundtrack --> complete with reversed photo, digital glitch etc at a circus event while riding ponies, dressed as santa, surrounded by stuffed animals.... complete with Jerry Schilling dancing Barefooted on a hot plate.

Re: Why did Elvis never make a Christmas movie?
...but a 1976's X-mas TV-Special would be nice. Think it over, EP in one of his favorite Jumpsuit, Lamar as Santa...and Tom Jones (as special guest only) is singing "There's a Santa who looks a lot like ELVIS"...
