After setting up his animation studio in Madrid, Spain, director Sergio Pablos, who had worked on Disney Raissance films such as The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, and Tarzan, decided to develop a new traditionally-animated feature film. Pablos wanted to explore how the medium would have evolved had western animation film studios not switched to producing mostly computer animated films since the 1990s. For the film's look, the studio sought to overcome some of the technical limitations that traditional animation had, focusing on organic and volumetric lighting and texturing to give the film a unique look, while maintaining a hand-crafted feel. Proprietary tools from Les films du Poisson Rouge, a Frch company in Angoulême, were used to allow the team to produce a variety of visual developmt styles, with the aim of getting away from the standardized style of characters looking like stickers put on painted backgrounds.
The first teaser for the project was released in April 2012; at the time, the studio was seeking investmt, co-production, and distribution partners. It was shopped around to various studios, but most studios rejected the movie viewing it as too risky.

John DeFore of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review, writing: Sergio Pablos' Klaus invts its own unexpected and very joyable origin story for the big guy who gives out toys every Christmas eve. Shaking off most Yuletide cliches in favor of a from-scratch story about how ev dubiously-motivated gerosity can lead to joy, it contains echoes of other seasonal favorites (especially, in a topsy-turvy way, Dr. Seuss' Grinch) while standing completely on its own.
