Mel Gibson's $200M Passion Sequel: New Cast, Supernatural Battles, and a Streaming Surge
Mel Gibson BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Mel Gibson has dominated entertainment headlines recently with the official announcement that his long-awaited sequel to The Passion of the Christ, now titled The Resurrection of the Christ, will arrive in cinemas as a two-part epic, with release dates locked for March 26, 2027—Good Friday—and May 6, 2027—Ascension Day. Lionsgate is distributing, and the combined budget for both films has reportedly soared past $200 million, making it one of the most expensive faith-based projects in Hollywood history. The secrecy around the script is fueling curiosity since potential buyers at the upcoming American Film Market must commit without seeing details, betting entirely on Mel’s vision and box office legacy. According to Deadline and Times of India, this time around the narrative will allegedly blend spiritual drama with what Gibson himself has described as “an acid trip” speckled with supernatural battles between angels and demons. In casting news, reports from ScreenRant and CBR indicate the role of Jesus has shifted from Jim Caviezel to Jaakko Ohtonen, and Mariela Garriga replaces Monica Bellucci as Mary Magdalene, prompting both anticipation and chatter about how a new ensemble will shape the franchise's future. While fans on social media are speculating fiercely about the rebooted cast, Gibson himself has been mostly silent online—choosing instead to make noise through his cinematic ambition.
Adding to his current momentum, Gibson’s recent thriller Flight Risk starring Mark Wahlberg performed respectably at the box office despite tepid critical reviews, and now his 2024 horror outing Monster Summer, which notched an 84 percent Rotten Tomatoes audience score, is set for a wider streaming release on Paramount Plus with Showtime on July 1, 2025. In business rumors swirling through entertainment trade sites, Gibson’s name has also surfaced as a rumored investor in Angel Studios, a rapidly growing platform aimed at audience-driven, values-centric content. While this investment has not been confirmed, the association alone has spurred ongoing debate about shifting power in the streaming wars.
Personal finance headlines remind us that the controversies of the mid-2000s may have cost Gibson over a hundred million dollars in opportunities, but with an estimated net worth hovering around $425 million, his financial resilience is clear. Legacy debates continue to swirl—especially as the new Messiah films gear up for what could be another record-smashing box office run, all while their creator keeps the industry guessing about his next cultural provocation.
