The most incredible show, watched by 200 million people, is probably something you're not familiar with.
Since its debut in 2017, The Chosen has taken the world by storm. This hit television series has captured the hearts of over 200 million viewers and accumulated a staggering 770 million episode views. Yet, surprisingly, many people have never even heard of it.

The Chosen first graced our screens in 2019, making it the first multi-season series to delve into the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. Created, directed, and co-written by filmmaker Dallas Jenkins through a crowdfunding project, it quickly became the most successful crowdfunded series in television history.

Starring Jonathan Roumie as Jesus Christ, the series is set in 1st Century Judea and Galilee. Alongside Roumie, the show boasts a talented and diverse cast, including Shahar Isaac, Elizabeth Tabish, Paras Patel, Noah James, and George H Xanthis.

The series has returned for three more seasons, each one exploring a different period of Jesus's life. Season 1 follows Jesus as he builds his group of disciples and ministry in 1st Century Galilee. We see familiar faces such as Mary Magdalene, Thaddeus, Little James, and the fishermen Simon, Andrew, Big James, and John.

While only the first season is currently available on Netflix UK, all four seasons can be streamed on Amazon Prime Video. And with seven seasons planned in total, The Chosen is just getting started on its epic journey.

The inspiration for the show came after Jenkins's 2017 film, The Resurrection of Gavin Stone, was deemed a flop. After binge-watching various television shows, Jenkins noticed that there had never been a multi-season series about Jesus told in this unique and captivating way. And so, The Chosen was born.

Funded by over 16,000 investors and raising a whopping $11 million, the show has been gaining more and more recognition. It has been licensed to major streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon, and The CW, further expanding its reach.

In addition to the seven planned seasons, The Chosen also has two tie-in novels and a potential animated series in the works. And in 2022, the show's team even pulled a sneaky marketing campaign, defacing their own billboards to direct viewers to a website called "The Chosen Is Not Good," where Satan himself urged people not to watch the show.

So, if you haven't heard about The Chosen yet, now is the time to jump on the bandwagon. It's available to stream on Netflix and Amazon, and the creators are always looking for new and exciting ways to share this powerful story with the world. Have a story to share about The Chosen?
