So what's the actual likelihood that this movie will get made? Don't they need to get a distributor and actors who want to work with him and all that?

 

[IsntChrisL]

A Passion sequel has always been a punchline. I can see him doing this to gain back some goodwill, given the success of the first. The meat of the story was already told though so I don't know how interesting they can make an almost completely happy story.

He seems to be in marginally good graces again seeing as he has a WWII movie coming out this fall with Andrew Garfield, Hugo Weaving etc.

Hollywood is enjoying a rebirth of the bible movies and he is a big name in that arena.

Oh, really, those are some decent names.

One of the things that could be covered in the movie is Jesus' three days in Hell (Acts 2:31). Declaring to the demons in hell (1 Peter 3:18–22) that they don't have power over people who have received God's pardon, seeing all of the Old Testament believers (like Abraham, Moses, David, etc.) be freed by Christ and taken to heaven, and possible imagery between Jesus and Satan meeting in Hell.

The last section of the movie will probably focus on Jesus ascending into heaven and what heaven looks like. There is more than enough detailed imagery about heaven in the book of revelation to give VFX artists unlimited options on how to show it.

Also, tons of visual opportunities showing the consequences of people losing the divine image. Meaning, what a person ends up looking like when they totally dehumanize themselves:

“It seems to … that if it is possible, as I’ve suggested, for human beings to choose to live more and more out of tune with the divine intention, to reflect the image of God less and less, these is nothing to stop them finally ceasing to bear that image, and so to be, as it were, beings who were once human but are not now. Those who persistently refuse to follow Jesus, the true Image of God, will by their own choice become less and less like him, that is, less and less truly human. We sometimes say, even of living people, that they have become inhuman … I see nothing in the New Testament to make me reject the possibility that some, perhaps many, of God’s human creatures do choose, and will choose, to dehumanize themselves completely” (Scholar NT Wright, p. 95-96).

Movie seems to be pretty interesting. Different take on war movies since its about a Conscientious Objector who ends up getting the Medal of Honor

That would be the opposite approach he took to the first film, which was completely grounded in reality. I can't see him choosing to go the fantasy route for a sequel.

Oh Mel. Why can't you see that your talent is wasted on this. If you want to make a religious film then how about something thought provoking. Really getting into the philosophy and make something truly weird.

I'm not really surprised he's going for this seeing as he seems to have got somewhat of a career back. Hopefully Hacksaw Ridge turns out good.

So are we all just going to ignore that interview that just got posted of Mel tweaking the fuck out?

Looked to me he was about to burst into tears. I doubt he's had that kind of reception in a long while so it was probably a bit much for him.

 

[NikonShots]

It was already done by one of the Nolan brothers and it was the most under appreciated shows on TV.

Ugggggghhhhh
They missed the chance to go with
Passion of the Christ 2: Christ Harder.

But in all honesty, the story of the resurrection is kind of boring for a movie.

Spoiler

Women go to the grave, the rock is moved, Jesus ain't there. Jesus's Bros call women some insulting names and go to grave to prove them wrong, Jesus ain't there. Then later Jesus shows up, and then rolls out like superman.
