VINCENT REGAN AND RICHARD COYLE LEAD THE STELLAR CAST
The series focuses on the disciples who had to go forward and spread the teachings of Christ to a world dominated by political unrest, and the start of a whole new religion that would dramatically reshape the history of the world. Jesus (Juan Pablo Di Pace) dies on the cross at the
hands of the Romans, deserted by even his most loyal followers. Peter (Adam Levy) and the disciples are hunted by Temple authorities led by High Priest Caiaphas (Richard Coyle) and Roman soldiers under orders from Governor Pontius Pilate (Vincent Regan).
For the tiny band of followers, every day is a fight for survival, and
their mission to 
spread the word to the world seems impossible.
Yet, they have hope and soon they have power: the amazing miracle of the
Resurrection and the shocking arrival of the Holy Spirit upon them all
at Pentecost enables them to inspire more and more people to join. The
growing church
brings challenges for Peter, John (Babou Alieu Ceesay) and Mary Magdalene (Chipo Chung),
who are pushed to the limit; they face trials while trying to
understand the God-given power granted to them as they transition from
the sorrow of Christ's ultimate sacrifice to the awe-inspiring wonder of
the Resurrection and beyond. Joanne Whalley and Greta Scacchi also star.

ReplyDeletehope it will prove to be good... but I myself haven't watched THE BIBLE either
DeleteThis sure is advertised enough on TV lately huh?
ReplyDeleteis it?
DeleteBible stories seem to be the new thing in movies now. Over-saturated comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteit is always like that around Easter
DeleteI always find it strange and interesting, how Hollywood interprets things.
ReplyDeletethat goes for America too
Deletespoiler alert, Jesus dies
ReplyDeleteyou don't say!

DeleteA.D. looks powerful.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm LOLing at Adam's comment there.
glad you like it!
DeleteEhh. Can't you just put up a picture of a smoking hot man for the rest of us who don't care for The Bible? ;)
ReplyDeleteI did want to put up larger photos of Vincent and Moyer, but, alas, there weren't any :( Some of those networks have really bad press materials
DeleteGreat photos and costumes. This should take the viewer back in time. Where The Bible left off? That is ambitious.
ReplyDeletethe costumes could be the better part of the series
DeleteZzzzzzzzzzzz Oh, you were saying?
ReplyDeleteReligion does tend to do that... that's why everybody is sleeping in the church on Sundays....
