The first two episodes of The Chosen: The Last Supper, the fifth season of popular faith-based series, are now playing in theaters. If you’d rather skip the big screen—or want to rewatch the episodes at home—read on to find out when and where you can stream Season 5.
The next installment of The Chosen takes place during Holy Week before the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Season 4 ended with Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead, a miracle that spurred the Sanhedrin and the High Priest to begin plotting to hand Him over to the Romans for execution.
“The table is set. The people of Israel welcome Jesus as king while his disciples anticipate his crowning. But—instead of confronting Rome—he turns the tables on the Jewish religious festival,” the synopsis reads. “Their power threatened, the country’s religious and political leaders will go to any length to ensure this Passover meal is Jesus’ last.”
When I spoke with Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus, he shared that he’s especially excited for fans to see the powerful scene where Jesus enters the temple marketplace and flips over the tables of the buyers, sellers, and money changers. “The marketplaces are just completely upended,” he told me on set last July. “It will be a wonderfully chaotic scene, and I can’t wait for people to see it."
