Mel Gibson just revealed the most ambitious Christian film ever made - and it starts before the resurrection, before the cross, at the fall of the angels themselves.
This is what $200 million and 7 years of secret writing looks like.
Spotlight Moments…
Gibson tells Joe Rogan the sequel spans from the fall of angels to the death of the last apostle - on IMAX cameras
$200 million budget across two films - the largest Christian film production in history, dwarfing The Passion of the Christ's $30M
The Harrowing of Hell gets its own cinematic act - Christ descending into Sheol, filmed in full IMAX scale
Angelic and demonic battles in other realms confirmed by Deadline sources close to production
Jim Caviezel is out - Finnish unknown Jaakko Otonen steps in as a transfigured, glorified Christ
Gibson on the resurrection: "Verifiable history" - not metaphor, not tradition, not a performance
This film isn't a sequel in the Hollywood sense.
It's the second act of a theological argument that started 21 years ago - one Hollywood refused to fund, then watched gross $612 million. Gibson is doing it again, outside the studio system, betting everything on a story the world may finally be ready to see.
