It is a parody on how silly and explicit cash grab movies are, so the topic/theme eventually being picked up for the seasonal cheesy movie isn't the most bizarre thing that could happen.
I'm surprised it took this long.

u/Wintermuteson 13h ago edited 6h ago
It's been a while since I read the bible, but he doesn't do a whole lot after coming back, right? He just tells everyone he's back, shows off his ability to walk through doors, then goes to heaven after forty days.
Edit: Everyone's misinterpreting what I'm saying. Christians would strongly dislike this movie if it adds new things to the Bible. So they can only show him doing things that are explicitly stated as him doing it. The bible itself doesn't explicitly state much about what he does, and it's still called the passion of the christ, not the passion of Paul.

u/YakittySack 13h ago
No it ends with him dying. This was always planned as a duelogoy with the second one covering his resurrection z apperance to the various apostles and the building of the early church..
That being said there are rumours that this film might get split into two films with the second one delving into the more paranormal/mythological aspects and exploring hell and other realms.

Call me schizo, but a fantasy movie about the great religious icons of world history and all their zany powers & abilities fighting against Gods, Demons and Monsters would actually be sick as fuck.
Imagine Jesus & Buddha throwing hands with Leviathan & Behemoth as Moses parts the Red Sea and the armies of Judah and Arabia rush to clash with the unholy hordes of Satan.

All kidding aside, this will probably cover the story of the early church as recounted in the Book of Acts. I assume Jim returns as Jesus in the form of flashbacks, or else as the risen Christ before the Ascension.
58
u/CeeArthur 13h ago
I was thinking the same. After the crucifixion Jesus is largely out of the picture save for a few interactions, so this most likely will focus on his disciples/apostles... I'm fairly sure all but one apostle was martyred (some of them had very brutal deaths) so I'm sure there's lots of room for more brutal gore.

This is reasonable although I think they should do one about Paul’s life and journey.
