Last week, the series’ creator and executive producer Dallas Jenkins and star Jonathan Roumie revealed The Chosen: Last Supper (Season 5) key art with portraits photographed by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, much to the delight of fans worldwide.
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. Their power threatened, the country’s religious and political leaders will go to any length to ensure this Passover meal is Jesus’ last.

The Chosen is a groundbreaking historical drama based on the life of Jesus (Jonathan Roumie), seen through the eyes of those who knew him. Set against the backdrop of Roman oppression in first-century Israel, the seven-season series shares an authentic and intimate look at Jesus’ revolutionary life and teachings. What started as a crowd-funded project has grown to over 280 million viewers and more than 17 million social media followers.
