Dallas Jenkins teased three scenes from the upcoming sixth season of \u201cThe Chosen\u201d during a livestream<\/a> Sunday night \u2014 noting that the scenes in the next installment of the biblical drama are both \u201cheavy\u201d and filled with \u201cjoy and beauty and meaning.\u201d <\/p>\n

Jenkins, the creator behind \u201cThe Chosen,\u201d said he believes the sixth season of the biblical drama \u201cis going to impact more people than any season we\u2019ve ever done.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the moment when we\u2019re going all in,\u201d Jenkins added. \u201cAll the five seasons previously have led to this, to Seasons 6 and 7.\u201d <\/p>\n

In the first of three teaser clips, Jenkins gives fans a glimpse of what the first episode in the sixth season will look like. The 30-second clip depicts the moment Jesus is arrested and the chaos that follows among his disciples, concluding with questions about Judas\u2019 whereabouts. <\/p>\n

\u201cThese are the little things that you don\u2019t always think about when you\u2019re remembering or reading the gospel story is how the word was spread about Judas, how the disciples were figuring out what to do,\u201d Jenkins said after sharing the clip. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe theme of Season 6 in many ways is how devastated and confused the followers of Jesus were, but they still had to trust and they still had to have faith.\u201d <\/p>\n

The highly-anticipated sixth season will depict the final 24 hours in the life of Jesus Christ, known as Good Friday. Audiences will see Jesus\u2019 arrest and crucifixion along with the confusion among his disciples that ultimately leads them to scatter.<\/p>\n

The second clip Jenkins shared is a scene from the first episode of Season 6, showing the disciples walking away from the Garden of Gethsemane after witnessing Jesus\u2019 arrest. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the kind of stuff that we don\u2019t always think about. What happened in that moment, how did they react to it? We did what we believe is a plausible capture of what they would have been talking about,\u201d Jenkins said. <\/p>\n

He added that this scene offers a lesson on where to turn \u201cwhen we are in the midst of suffering, sadness, confusion, doubt, pain.\u201d <\/p>\n

The livestream concluded with a bonus clip capturing Judas in the aftermath of his betrayal. <\/p>\n

Jenkins said filming the sixth season of the biblical drama was \u201cby far the hardest thing I\u2019ve ever done in my career.\u201d <\/p>\n

Many scenes in the upcoming season will be \u201cheavy\u201d and painful to watch, he added, but he urged viewers to stick with the series as it will be \u201cworthwhile.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI also can promise you that this season is not just heavy,\u201d Jenkins said. \u201cIt\u2019s also got joy. It\u2019s also got beauty … it\u2019s not just going to be a full season of just pain and misery.\u201d <\/p>\n

Jenkins gives updates on Seasons 6 and 7<\/p>\n

Season 6 of \u201cThe Chosen\u201d will begin a phased release this fall, and official release dates will be announced this Friday, Jenkins said. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are putting the finishing touches right now on the season,\u201d Jenkins said. <\/p>\n

He explained that Season 6 is \u201ctaking abnormally long\u201d because all six episodes and the finale will be released in dozens of languages \u2014 instead of translations being added after the show\u2019s release.<\/p>\n

Visual effects in the upcoming season are also more extensive, he added, and each episode has a longer runtime than previous seasons. <\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s just a ton of work that is going into it,\u201d Jenkins said. \u201cThe visual effects team has been working nights and weekends to try to get this across the finish line … it\u2019s just a very, very difficult season, (with) very, very difficult content to finish.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI just cannot wait for you to see it,\u201d he added. \u201cIt really is coming together beautifully.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first six episodes in the sixth season of \u201cThe Chosen\u201d will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in fall 2026, followed by the global theatrical release of the season finale in spring 2027, Jenkins announced<\/a> at ChosenCon in February.<\/p>\n

Filming for the seventh and final season of \u201cThe Chosen\u201d will begin in a month, with the script and other details currently entering their final phases.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m still recovering from Season 6. I don\u2019t know how I\u2019m going to do this,\u201d Jenkins told the Deseret News when reflecting on the upcoming filming for Season 7, which will include production in Goshen, Utah<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll come back to Utah. We\u2019ll be there for about a month,\u201d Jenkins added. \u201cHoping to get in a couple naps beforehand, though, because I\u2019m exhausted.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dallas Jenkins teased three scenes from the upcoming sixth season of \u201cThe Chosen\u201d during a livestream Sunday night…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":374307,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[93,61,60,282],"class_list":["post-374306","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374306","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=374306"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374306\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/374307"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=374306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=374306"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=374306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
