• The first three seasons of The Chosen will soon be dubbed in 50 languages with plans to subtitle in more than 600.
• The Chosen is the first multi-season series of its kind: a ground-breaking historical drama about the life of Jesus.
• Jonathan Roumie was invited to the Vatican on two different occasions to speak to the Pope about his role as Jesus.
I will say that The Chosen is a series that I loosely follow. I have seen a few episodes from each of the 3 Seasons, but have not seen them all.
I was given the opportunity to watch Season 4 Episodes 7 & 8. I have to say this show could become a new favorite. The Script was very spot on with the Bible. These episodes focus on Jesus preaching to the Crowd of 5,000 and Jesus Walking on Water. The Acting and Drama was very captivating. I am one who usually doesn't comprehend Biblical Drama, but this series was very easy to understand and comprehend. I HIGHLY recommend going to the Theatre to see Season 4 of The Chosen! GREAT SERIES!
