Studio Behind 'The Chosen' Announces Five New Projects, Including 'Book of Acts' TV Series

‘The Chosen’ world is set to expand and grow, according to a recent press release from the studio of the hit Jesus series, which has announced five new projects in the works.

5&2 Studios, which was formed after The Chosen creator Dallas Jenkins broke away from Angel Studios, will oversee the production of The Chosen franchise in addition to “a future lineup of film and television projects set in the biblical world.” Jenkins revealed:

“Nearly every time I encounter a viewer, they say something about wanting more Bible content from us. I always say we need to not get ahead of ourselves and remain focused, but now we’ve got a robust enough team to expand our efforts…”I’m very excited to bring our ‘Chosen way’ to more great stories from the Bible, and it’s awesome that we get to first announce it to the fans who helped get us here long before we were popular.”
