EPIC JOSEPH OF EGYPT AT AMAZON

Amazon MGM Studios will make a new Biblical series JOSEPH OF EGYPT with The Chosen creator Dallas Jenkins. It will be written and executive produced by Craig Wright. In the Book of Genesis, Joseph is the son of Jacob and Rachel who is sold into slavery in Egypt by his brothers. But his ability to successfully interpret the Pharaoh’s dreams, which saves Egypt from a terrible famine, earns him favor and position. Betrayed by jealous brothers, Joseph defies all expectations and rises to incredible power in Egypt, second only to Pharaoh. But when his past catches up with him, he is confronted with the ultimate test.
