Dallas Jenkins is Chairman and Chief Creative Officer at 5&2 Studios and Creator and Executive Producer of The Chosen. Jenkin’s is also Director of Lionsgate’s upcoming film The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. Jenkins explained: “Nearly every time I encounter a viewer, they say something about wanting more Bible content from us. I always say we need to not get ahead of ourselves and remain focused, but now we’ve got a robust enough team to expand our efforts. I’m very excited to bring our ‘Chosen way’ to more great stories from the Bible, and it’s awesome that we get to first announce it to the fans who helped get us here long before we were popular.”
Over 5,000 fans of The Chosen gathered at The Chosen Insiders Conference (ChosenCon) for the two-day fan convention in Orlando. The conference featured panel discussions, cast meet-and-greets, special announcements, sneak previews, and more. The first ChosenCon was held in Dallas, TX in 2023 with over 3,500 attendees.
