I’m really looking forward to this reboot. I read all the books and, while I felt the authors could’ve wrapped up the story much sooner, I did enjoy them. The 2001 movie was pretty disappointing, mainly because the lower budget didn’t allow for the grand scope needed. This new version will cut the first book in half, creating two movies. The first movie will deal with the rapture and its impact, which will give time for characters to be developed.
Being a “post-trib, pre-wrath” believer, I consider these movies pure fiction, loosely based on the bible.
Kinda like “The Last Temptation of Christ”.
