Here is the logline for “The Chosen: Last Supper”: “The table is set. The people of Israel welcome Jesus as king, while his disciples anticipate his coronation. But – instead of confronting Rome – he turns the tables on the Jewish religious festival. Their power is threatened and the country’s religious and political leaders will do everything they can to ensure that this Passover meal is Jesus’ last.”
“I’m possibly more excited to bring Season 5 to the world than any other season we’ve done,” said Dallas Jenkins, creator and executive producer of ‘The Chosen.’ “Unfortunately it won’t come until March, but that’s because it’s such a huge season and requires a lot of work. But I’m so happy to show this first glimpse of it with the poster and the teaser and for our fans.”
Jenkins launched 5&2 Studios earlier this year, exclusively revealing Variety his plans to expand the universe of ‘The Chosen’ with several new projects, including the animated film ‘The Chosen Adventures’, a youthful take on the Jesus story, with voice actors such as Paul Walter Hauser (‘Black Bird’) and Yvonne Orji ( ‘Insecure’). Also in the works: “The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls” is a six-episode adventure series shooting this fall. And after “The Chosen” wraps, Jenkins plans to write, direct and show a three-season series about Moses’ life for his next flagship program.
In the coming years, season 6 of “The Chosen” will focus on the story of the crucifixion, while season 7 will focus on the resurrection of Jesus. Both seasons will feature eight episodes, and a worldwide theatrical release of extended Crucifixion and Resurrection episodes.
