According to a new report, Mel Gibson is scouting locations in Malta for the sequel to the 2004 blockbuster The Passion of the Christ and could begin production as early as 2025. That sequel, The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection, has long been anticipated by fans and is expected to explore the events leading up to and following the resurrection.
The Italian news site Italpress reported last week that Gibson was in Malta “on a five-day visit for discussions with the Maltese authorities in connection with a potential film project.”
