Well, Family Guy may have had a chuckle at the idea (below), but there is a sequel in the works to The Passion Of The Christ.
This is not a drill. Or a wind-up.
Star of the first movie, Jim Caviezel has been chatting about returning as Jesus Christ under the direction, once again of Mel Gibson: “There are things that I cannot say that will shock the audience. It’s great. Stay tuned.”
Caviezel and Gibson are already working on the sequel and, according to Gibson, talking about his idea for a sequel in 2016, the movie could pick up on another big part of The Bible: “The Resurrection. Big subject. Oh, my God,” Gibson said.
“We’re trying to craft this in a way that’s cinematically compelling and enlightening so that it shines new light, if possible, without creating some weird thing.”
The Passion was a massive movie on its release and is still talked about today for its graphic portrayal of how Jesus was tortured and then crucified… it should be interesting to see how actor and director would team up to chronicle this part of the story.
We’ll keep you posted as and well details of the sequel arise…
