Red One: How Old Is Dwayne Johnson’s Callum Drift? Age Revealed

Fans are wondering exactly how old the protagonist of Red One, Dwayne Johnson’s Callum Drift, is. The 2024 action comedy recently hit the screen ahead of the festive season and is quickly becoming the talk of the town. A humorous take on Christmas lore, the movie follows Drift, the head of security at the North Pole, who joins hands with a tracker, Jack O’Malley, to rescue Santa Claus.

Here’s everything you need to know about Callum Drift’s age in Red One.

How old is Dwayne Johnson’s Callum Drift in the Red One movie?

Dwayne Johnson’s character Callum Drift is close to 600 years old in the movie Red One.

Although the movie does not reveal Drift’s exact age, a scene in the movie drops a major hint. Callum Drift is the head of security at the North Pole, and his objective is to protect Santa Claus. Thus, when Santa is kidnapped, he reluctantly teams up with tracker and bounty hunter Jack O’Malley to rescue him.

Their rescue operation soon leads them to Santa’s estranged adopted brother, Krampus, whose house they try to break into. However, the duo is captured and locked up in a dungeon. Trapped in, the two have a conversation in which Drift reveals that he has been in service for an extraordinarily long time.

Drift states that he has been the head commander of the E.L.F. (Enforcement, Logistics, and Fortification) for a whopping 542 years. Assuming that he started working 20 years after his birth, we can deduce that Drift is around 600 years old. Since the beginning, the film has confirmed that mythological characters such as Santa Claus, The Headless Horseman, Krampus, and more are real entities that inhabit the earthly realm. Like them, Callum Drift is not a human but a mythological member of the North Pole. Thus, it is not unusual for him to have such a strange lifespan. Since he doesn’t look too old in the movie, we can assume that Drift still has centuries to love before he may or may not pass away.
