The more than 1,200-acre facility houses space for set building, sound stages and anything else the show needs.<\/p>\n<p>By the weekend, the production will wrap its nearly five-month shoot that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/news\/local\/article315551107.html\" rel=\"Follow nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">began in late April.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To mark the end of filming, several local press members were invited to tour the set on Monday, Sept. 21, and speak with some of the show\u2019s crew, including series creator Dallas Jenkins.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do hope that on other projects, we have a chance to use some of these facilities and this great landscape and the great people that we have here,\u201d Jenkins told the Star-Telegram.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfac In case you missed it: <\/p>\n<p>        \u2018The Chosen\u2019 season 7 wraps filming<\/p>\n<p>Season 7, which will cover the Resurrection, filmed across a warm Texas summer.<\/p>\n<p>Jenkins joked that there are times when he shows up to set and says \u201cnever again\u201d because of the unforgiving weather. But, he\u2019s quick to point out that while the weather has been difficult at times, the production has lost very few days to the elements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll miss that part of it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Jenkins doesn\u2019t believe his time is over in Texas.<\/p>\n<p>When \u201cThe Chosen\u201d filmed at other places like in Utah or Italy, it was more out of necessity and not because the show wanted to leave the Lone Star State. He enjoyed his time here and knows the cast and crew did as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sure we\u2019re going to find more ways to make this work,\u201d Jenkins said.<\/p>\n<p>                                          <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"responsive-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/unnamed (16).png\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"1500\" title=\"unnamed (16).png\" alt=\"\u201cThe Chosen\u201d season 6 teaser poster.\"\/>                                                                                    \u201cThe Chosen\u201d season 6 teaser poster.                                                                                                                                                                        5&amp;2 Studios                                                                                        More on \u2018The Chosen\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Chosen\u201d is described as a \u201chistorical drama based on the life of Jesus and those who knew him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The series stars Jonathan Roumie, Paras Patel, Shahar Isaac, George H.
