The Chosen, a crowd-backed drama series based on Jesus’ journey, is back for its fifth run. Created by Dallas Jenkins, the series first premiered in 2017 and rapidly acquired a global following. The most recent season started its U.S. rollout on June 15, 2025, with chapters being released in batches across June and July.

What Is The Chosen About?

The Chosen Season 5 picks up with Jesus heading into Jerusalem during Holy Week. He reaches the temple but finds it turned into a noisy marketplace instead of a sacred space, sparking tension with Caiaphas, the Jewish high priest. As Jesus continues to speak to crowds, the religious elite get more defensive.

They start plotting to stop him. The pressure grows, and a plan to capture him takes shape. Judas eventually agrees to help them find Jesus, leading to a turning point during the Passover gathering. That night, he sealed a deal that would shift everything.
