The new season of The Chosen has a theatrical release date. 5&2 Studios on Monday announced Season 5 of The Chosen will enjoy a four-week run, launching in three parts: Part One (episodes 1-2), Part Two (episodes 3, 4 and 5), and Part Three (episodes 6, 7 and 8).
The first part will hit theaters on March 27.
It will be known as The Chosen: Last Supper and will chronicle Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem in the days leading up to the crucifixion.
“The table is set. The people of Israel welcome Jesus as king while his disciples anticipate his crowning,” the official plot summary reads. “But — instead of confronting Rome — he turns the tables on the Jewish religious festival. Their power threatened, the country’s religious and political leaders will go to any length to ensure this Passover meal is Jesus’ last.”
It will be distributed by Fathom in the United States and by Trafalgar Releasing internationally. A trailer features scenes of Jesus cleansing the temple and sharing the Lord’s Supper with His disciples.
“I’m possibly more excited to bring Season 5 to the world than any other season we’ve done,” said Dallas Jenkins, creator and executive producer of The Chosen. “Unfortunately, it’s not coming until March, but that’s because it’s such a huge season and requires a ton of work.”
The Chosen: Last Supper will begin its international release April 10 in more than 40 global territories, including the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Poland, Philippines, India, Brazil and Mexico.
It will launch on streaming platforms later in 2025, 5&2 Studios said.
Meanwhile, 5&2 Studios will hold its annual “Teal Tuesday” on Tuesday, Nov. 26, from 4 p.m. through midnight Eastern, on The Chosen’s official YouTube channel. It will feature discounted merchandise, fan giveaways, and guest appearances by cast members. Executive producer Derral Eves will host it.
