Alright, Chosen fans—let’s get into it. If you’ve been on this journey from the Sea of Galilee to Jerusalem, you know The Chosen doesn’t just tell a story—it pulls you in, heart first. And with Season 5 leaving us reeling after the Last Supper and Judas’ gut-wrenching betrayal, the big question now is: what’s next in Season 6? So, grab a coffee or whatever gets you through the wait—we’ve rounded up everything we know so far.
The Chosen Season 6 Potential Release Date
We’re still waiting on an official release date, but there are some solid clues. Creator Dallas Jenkins has confirmed that filming kicked off in April 2025, with crews splitting time between Goshen, Utah, and the ancient stone streets of Matera, Italy. And it’s no small task—they’re filming the crucifixion, after all.
Here’s the twist: Season 6 is heading to theaters first as a feature-length film focused on the crucifixion, set to release on March 12, 2027. That’s right—Jenkins is going big. After that cinematic run, fans can expect the full season to hit Amazon Prime Video for a limited 90-day window, followed by free streaming on The Chosen app, much like the rollout of Season 5.
So if all goes according to plan, we’re looking at a Spring 2027 streaming release—just in time for Easter, which feels perfectly aligned with the tone of this season.
The Chosen Season 6 Expected Cast
The cast of The Chosen is like family at this point, and most of our favorites should be back. Here’s who we’re pretty sure we’ll see:
-
Jonathan Roumie as Jesus. His performance is the soul of the show—can’t imagine it without him.
-
Shahar Isaac as Simon Peter, the rough-around-the-edges disciple who’s all in.
-
Elizabeth Tabish as Mary Magdalene, bringing heart and grit to her redemption arc.
-
Paras Patel as Matthew, the quirky tax collector we all love.
-
George H. Xanthis as John, who’s got a big role in this crucifixion-heavy season.
-
Noah James as Andrew, Simon’s brother, always steady but emotional.
-
Joey Vahedi as Thomas, wrestling with doubt and loyalty.
-
Abe Bueno-Jallad as Big James, who’s been hyping up how intense filming is.
Now, the big question: Luke Dimyan as Judas. Season 5 covered the Last Supper and betrayal, so Judas’ story might wrap up there. Jenkins is keeping mum, so we’re left wondering if Judas pops up in flashbacks or not at all. Either way, the disciples’ reactions to what’s coming will steal the show. Oh, and expect familiar faces like Yasmine Al-Bustami as Ramah and Brandon Potter as Quintus to round things out.
The Chosen Season 6 Potential Plot
The Chosen Season 6 will focus on the crucifixion of Jesus, one of the most pivotal and heart-wrenching moments in the biblical narrative. Following Season 5’s depiction of Holy Week, including the triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the Last Supper, and Judas’ betrayal, Season 6 will center on Good Friday. Expect key events like Jesus’ trial before Pontius Pilate, his journey to Golgotha, and the crucifixion itself.
