The Chosen is the first multi-season series about the life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. Dallas Jenkins, the series’ creator, wanted to create a series about Jesus that could be “binge-watched”,and hoped to distinguish the new series from previous portrayals of Jesus by crafting a multi-season, episode-based story. Jenkins’ intention was to focus more deeply on the people who encountered Jesus and to show Jesus “through the eyes of those who met him”.
Set in 1st century Israel, the series revolves around Jesus, played by Jonathan Roumie, and the different people who met and followed him.
The show is financed via crowdfunding; the show is free to watch and viewers are asked to ‘pay it forward’ by contributing whatever amount they wish to fund future seasons, and contributors may receive perks such as appearing as an extra in the film. As of 2021, viewers had contributed $40 million towards its production, making it the most successful crowdfunded TV series project.
Now you can join thousands of others up and down the UK and experience episodes one and two of The Chosen Season 3 at the cinema.
Episodes one and two of Season 3 pick up where we left off, and in this unique theatrical experience, launch the most emotional and consequential season of The Chosen to date. Jesus gives a sermon that turns the world upside down, and all 12 disciples are ready to follow him to the ends of the earth.
