20th Century Fox Releasing SON OF GOD in Theaters February 28, 2014
Twentieth Century Fox announced today it will release SON OF GOD in theaters nationwide February 28, 2014.
The story of Jesus’ life comes from producer/actress Roma Downey (Touched by an Angel, The Bible) and producer Mark Burnett (The Voice, Survivor, Shark Tank, The Bible). The two brought the epic miniseries “The Bible” to television audiences around the world with their company LightWorkers Media.
The series became the number one cable entertainment telecast of the year, one of the fastest-selling TV-to-disc titles ever and went on to garner 3 Emmy® Award nominations. Mixing adventure, action and drama from The Bible, the series drew acclaim for retelling the sacred text in a way that was relevant to today’s audiences.
Now, the story of Jesus gets a larger-than-life treatment in the stand-alone feature SON OF GOD. The film features the score from Oscar-winner Hans Zimmer and Portuguese actor Diogo Morgado takes on the role of Jesus as the film spans from his humble birth through his teachings, crucifixion and ultimate resurrection.
The producers are thrilled that their Jesus narrative will finally be seen on the big screen. “We are very excited to be working with Twentieth Century Fox to release SON OF GOD as a major motion picture,” said Roma Downey and Mark Burnett. “We responded to an overwhelming demand for the greatest story ever told to be seen as a shared experience on the big screen. The result is a beautiful stand-alone movie. It’s the story of Jesus for a whole new generation.”
Inspired by the success of “The Bible” series, SON OF GOD features never-before-seen footage, a theatrical edit and a 5.1 surround sound mix that adds to the immediacy of the experience.
