“Once we saw Episodes 7 and 8 finished with the incredible music and the biggest story we’ve told yet, we all said this has to be on the big screen,” said Director Dallas Jenkins. “And knowing what I know about some shocking twists, I cannot wait to see the fans respond in a room together.”
“We’re excited to team up with The Chosen again in bringing these dramatic episodes to theatres nationwide,” said Ray Nutt CEO of Fathom Events. “Fans love this series and the shared communal experience they can get only in theatres — we can’t wait for them to see the Season Three finale.”
