The Chosen: How a Crowdfunded TV Series About Jesus Took Over the World

View descriptionShare

On this episode of Our American Stories, The Chosen is the first multi-season television series about the life of Jesus Christ, and it has become one of the most successful faith-based projects in entertainment history. What began as a small, crowdfunded Christmas special has grown into a global phenomenon with hundreds of millions of views worldwide.

Here to tell the story behind the series is Katherine Warnock, Vice President of Original Content, who explains how creator Dallas Jenkins and his team built a community-driven model that bypassed traditional Hollywood gatekeepers. This is the story of how The Chosen reshaped faith content, streaming television, and how studios now think about audience, community, and belief.
