The Chosen Season 6 finale, episode 7, and theatrical release explained

Dallas Jenkins confirmed that the Season 6 finale, often called Episode 7, will open in theaters as its own release, then join streaming services in spring 2027.

At ChosenCon, Jenkins explained why the finale is separate from the streaming episodes. “Season 6 is the biggest season we’ve ever done, without a close second.” He called the production “super-sized”. The theatrical release puts the end of Holy Week on a cinema screen with surround sound. Earlier theatrical releases earned over $85 million worldwide.

Where did The Chosen Season 6 film?

Filming for Season 6 began on April 14, 2025, across multiple international locations and ran for 86 days, making it the longest shoot in the series’ history.

Locations included Texas, Utah, and Italy. The crew shot the crucifixion scene in Italy, a country with many filming locations. The cast spent three weeks in Matera and Craco, Italy, using ancient architecture that resembles first-century Jerusalem.

In a press conference held at the Vatican at the end of that time, Jenkins described those three weeks as “the most challenging, painful, and beautiful days of my career.”

What will happen in The Chosen Season 6?

Season 6 covers the 24 hours of Good Friday. Jesus has been arrested after Judas betrayed him, and his followers scatter because they could be next.

The official synopsis reads: “The hour has come. Before the sun sets, Jesus of Nazareth will be dead. Season Six captures the real-time tragedy and triumph of the Crucifixion through the eyes of those closest to Him, portraying a deeply emotional, human, and spiritually gripping recreation of the day that changed the world forever.”

Dallas Jenkins called Season 6 “the story of humanity grappling with love and sacrifice in its rawest form.”

Jenkins also said Season 6 is “really a lot about surrender.” He said, “Jesus could have stopped this at any time, but chose not to out of total devotion to the Father and humanity.”

What are the cast saying about Season 6?

Noah James, who plays Andrew, said that after reading the Season 6 scripts, he spent two days on his couch weeping. He called it “brutal, but surprising” and said it could be some viewers’ favorite season.

Abe Bueno-Jallad, who plays Big James, said he had “never seen the cast so focused” and that they went through the 86-day shoot together.

Jonathan Roumie said portraying the Passion of Christ was the most physically taxing and reverent work he has undertaken, and that it stayed with him spiritually.

How many seasons of The Chosen are there?

The first five seasons of The Chosen are on Prime Video. We covered earlier seasons in our The Chosen Season 4 streaming updates and where to stream earlier seasons. Season 7 is expected in 2028.

The Chosen Season 6 and the Amazon MGM deal

In 2025, Amazon MGM Studios signed a first-look agreement with 5&2 Studios. Prime Video gets exclusive early streaming rights to new seasons of The Chosen, and to The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls, The Chosen Adventures, and Joseph of Egypt.

Season 6 follows theatrical releases across earlier seasons that grossed more than $85 million worldwide.

A note on what Season 6 means for all of us

We have followed Jesus and His disciples, including Peter, Matthew, and Mary Magdalene, through healings, miracles, laughter, and heartbreak for five seasons. Season 6 reaches the crucifixion.

“Everyone knows the basics of this part of the story,” Jenkins has said, “but not everyone knows the ‘why’ of the crucifixion and the extraordinary events of these 24 hours.”

That “why” is the question the series has followed since the first episode. Jenkins has described that day through devotion, sacrifice, and surrender.

Season 6 of The Chosen premieres on Prime Video on November 15, 2026, and covers the 24 hours of Good Friday.
