Jim Caviezel announced that the filming of The Passion of the Christ 2 will start soon and, in addition, he was excited about how the production is turning out, which will once again be directed by Mel Gibson.
The actor, who stars in the highly controversial film sound of freedomoffered an interview to the site World of Reels (It is not specified if the talk happened before or during the actors’ strike). There, he revealed that the film will start production in January 2024.
It is striking that the cameras will run again 20 years after the premiere of the first installment, which was not without controversy either, especially due to its excessive violence and the brutality with which the last hours of Jesus are portrayed. Now, the continuation will carry the subtitle of Resurrection.

It is important to mention that, during an interview with TruthSocialCaviezel mentioned that this will be: “the greatest movie ever”. Furthermore, he spoke highly of the work done by Gibson. This was what he said:
«Mel told me all the scenes and I was on the floor crying. It will be one of the best things you have ever seen. I can not tell you [cuándo se estrena]. If I told you, I would have to kill you.”
He also added that the content of the sequel could be split into “two or three movies.”
A few months ago, during an interview with Outstanding Screenplays, Mel Gibson confirmed that the sequel will arrive “very soon”. In addition, he confirmed that Caviezel would be back in the lead role and said that this part of the story will be like “an acid trip” as Jesus will now visit various otherworldly “realms.”
Since it was announced that the filming of The Passion of the Christ 2: Resurrection will start soon, will something interesting happen on its way to the rooms?
Jose Roberto Landaverde I love writing, listening, reading and commenting on everything related to cinema. I love music and am a fan of The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac and Paramore. My favorite movies are Rocky and Back to the Future and obviously one day I’ll climb the “Philly Steps” and drive a DeLorean. Faithful believer that cinema is the best teleportation machine, and also that on the big screen we can all see ourselves represented.
