🎄Naughty, Nice & Never Boring: Lucas Haas Rings in the Holidays

This holiday episode of Amazing Women and Men of Power: Legends & Icons brings the cheer—with a twist. Raven the Talk Show Maven welcomes acclaimed actor and musician Lucas Haas, whose career spans more than four decades across film, television, and now music. From unforgettable performances in Witness and Inception to his work on The Righteous Gemstones, Lucas now surprises fans with a rowdy, blues-infused holiday anthem that flips Christmas tradition on its head. 🎶

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How Lucas’s new holiday single “Christmas Cheers” came to life
• Why being “too naughty for Santa” became the perfect song concept
• The creative spark that came from working on The Righteous Gemstones
• Why waiting for “perfect” can hold artists back—and how he pushed past it
• How releasing this song opened the floodgates for more music
• Lucas’s early love for both acting and music—and discovering The Beatles as a child
• Buying his first drum set with his first acting paycheck
• Lessons learned from working with visionary directors like Christopher Nolan, Damien Chazelle, and Steve McQueen
• Why following your gut matters more than waiting for permission
• How humor, blues, and chaos make the holidays more fun

This episode is proof that creativity doesn’t retire, reinvention is always possible, and sometimes the best holiday gift is giving yourself permission to just put it out there.
