Good news for fans of The Chosen! Season 5 is finally arriving for streaming, and it is going to bring us right into some of the most dramatic moments from the Bible. After a financially successful run in movie theaters, this next chapter is ready to hit your screens. It promises a truly intense journey. I know many of us have been eagerly waiting to see what happens next with Jesus and his disciples.
This season aims to pack in more action and emotion than ever before. It follows Jesus as he goes from being welcomed as a king to facing betrayal. His final days unfold in a story that changed the world. We will see him boldly confront corrupt merchants, which kicks off a chain of events that shakes up the city. Religious leaders scramble to quiet his growing influence. Jesus shares one last meal with his closest followers. But in the shadows, Judas makes a deal that decides both their fates. This tale of power faith and betrayal will echo through time, showing how one man’s ultimate sacrifice becomes humanity’s greatest story.
Creator and director Dallas Jenkins shared his thoughts about the season. He promised us a wild ride. Actress Elizabeth Tabish, who plays Mary Magdalene, also gave her feelings about Season 5. She said that while Season 4 was probably the most emotional Season 5 brings a different kind of feeling. She explained that Jesus announces he is going to die and most of his followers do not want to believe it. This creates a lot of struggle and a sense of urgency. Everything is moving so quickly and feels out of everyone’s control. The tone of this season is one of urgency rather than grief because the characters do not know if it is going to happen or has to happen yet. This perspective makes me even more excited to see the emotional weight of these events.
When And How You Can Watch The Chosen Season 5 Streaming At Home
Mark Your Calendars For The Staggered Release Of The Latest Episodes On Prime Video
If you missed The Chosen Season 5 in theaters, do not worry. You can finally watch it from home starting June 15. That is the day you can stream the first two episodes on Amazon Prime Video. Then, three more episodes will appear the following week on June 22. The dramatic final three episodes will roll out on June 29. So, the entire season will be available after three weeks of releases. It is a different pace than just dropping everything at once.
Dallas Jenkins explained why they chose this release style. He said they wanted to release it at the same rhythm as they did in theaters. So the first week brings two episodes. The second week three episodes. The third week three episodes. This kind of staggered release helps build excitement and lets fans digest the events. It also differs from past seasons because the series will not come to The Chosen App until 90 days after it is on Prime. Jenkins mentioned they had a good deal with Prime Video. Typically, a streaming platform would have exclusive rights for a long time before content goes anywhere else. This means if you want to watch it quickly Prime Video is the place to be.
The trailer for Season 5 sets the stage for a shocking journey leading up to The Last Supper. We hear Jesus dramatically declare "My house should be a house of prayer, but you make it a den of thieves!" Judas ominously asks "What have you done?" Paras Patel, who plays Matthew, said that this season can be described in one word: chaos. He feels there is just a lot happening. Season 5 raises the emotion quite a bit and you really see the disciples trying to figure out what is actually going on. This sounds like it will be a real test for the characters and for us watching them.
Looking Ahead: The Chosen Season 6 And 7 Are Already Planned With Theatrical Releases
Dallas Jenkins Explains Why Production Is Slowing Down And What It Means For Future Seasons
It is not just Season 5 that we have to look forward to. The Chosen has big plans for its future, with Season 6 and Season 7 already having theatrical release dates. The Season 6 finale will be released in theaters on March 12, 2027. Season 7 will kick off with its premiere in theaters on March 31, 2028. This is a very new kind of deal. Amazon MGM Studios and 5&2 Studios will release the Season 6 finale as a movie that shows the crucifixion of Jesus. The Season 7 premiere will be a movie showing the resurrection of Jesus. Both of these are being made as standalone films for the big screen. This is a huge step for the show and its audience.
Dallas Jenkins has been open about the challenges of making the show. He said that getting these seasons to us at the pace they have been doing has been very taxing on the team. He mentioned that the quality control process has been much faster and tighter than most shows and movies. This has caused a lot of difficulty. Jenkins stated that the team working on the show is stretched very thin. They have been asking him for a bit more breathing room. So, they will be doing that for future seasons. This means Season 6 will take longer to film than any season before it. This will also push back the post-production process.
Jenkins wants us to be thankful that they try to get the show to us as soon as possible. He also believes that slowing down the production will make the show better. It should also reduce the chance of errors. It is good to hear that they are prioritizing the well-being of the crew and the quality of the content. This kind of care behind the scenes usually shows up on screen. It tells me they are committed to giving us the best possible version of this story.
Release dates for the episodes leading up to the Season 6 finale have not been given yet. However, Jenkins thinks they will likely come out in late 2026. He also revealed that Season 6 will probably have more episodes than normal. All previous seasons have had eight episodes. Season 6 will also have a special theatrical release plan. The first six episodes will likely be in theaters in late 2026. Then there will be a longer break before the final episodes are released in what Jenkins called a "global theatrical event." This sounds like a unique way to bring the story to a wider audience.
Beyond The Main Series: The Chosen's Expanding Universe And Future Plans
Exploring New Content And Spin-Offs Coming To Fans Between Seasons
During the time between Seasons 5 and 6 of The Chosen, there will still be a steady flow of content from 5&2 Studios. Fans can expect special events like Chosen Con. There will also be "The Chosen Adventures" and "The Chosen In The Wild with Bear Grylls." Other spin-off series are also planned. This means even when we are waiting for new full seasons, there will be other ways to stay connected to the show’s world and characters. I think this is a smart move. It keeps the community engaged and gives us more ways to experience the story. It also helps manage expectations for the longer waits between main seasons.
The show's ability to reach a large global audience has made it a phenomenon. This success means the crew faces more difficulty keeping up the quick release pace of earlier seasons. Jenkins' decision to slow things down is a direct response to this. It shows a commitment to the art and the people who make it possible. I admire this approach. It means the show will continue to be a powerful and meaningful experience for many years to come.
I know many fans are eager to watch all of Season 5 right away. The staggered release might feel a little slow for some. But knowing the big plans for future seasons and the care taken in production, it feels worth the wait. This show is not just about telling a story. It is about creating an experience that resonates deeply with its viewers. I believe The Chosen will continue to do just that, even as it grows and changes.
