Wallace recalls Gibson’s warning of spiritual warfare before Resurrection sequel
Randall Wallace says Mel Gibson warned that telling The Resurrection of the Christ could invite spiritual warfare, and the duo pursued a two‑part sequel after Wallace urged Gibson to tell the Resurrection story. The project, described as an orthodox yet unprecedented take, is scheduled as Part One on May 6, 2027 (Ascension Day) and Part Two on May 25, 2028, with Gibson framing the film as a mission rather than a money grab. Production details and Gibson’s belief in the Resurrection’s significance are highlighted, following Gibson’s original Passion-era addition of a brief Resurrection scene.
