He was raised in the Children of God sex cult. There was a tactic used called ‘hooking for Jesus’. Rose McGowan also was brought up in it.

Evidently the screenwriter(s) were ignorant of the fact that Mary Magdalene was only one of many female followers of Christ.

Jeffrey Hunter and Max von Sydow were also miscast. Jim Caviezel came close. But the perfect Jesus was in Ben Hur. The one with Charlton Heston. Ben Hur’s Jesus was the only way he could be portrayed. With mystery and leaving the audience to picture Him as they saw Him. Movie genius.

Casting is 90% of making a good movie.

One glance at Joaquin Phoenix being morose and anguished and weirdly sinister ...

ROTFL!! Yeah... gotta say, he was creepy even as a child. Remember Parenthood?

Films about Jesus the Christ are generally done by people who spend their lives not following Jesus the Christ.

Just watched the trailer, which focussed more on Mary Magdalene (as a SJW) than Jesus. Meh.
