By Movieguide® Contributor
THE CHOSEN’s Christmas special, CHRISTMAS WITH THE CHOSEN: HOLY NIGHT, just started selling tickets.
The annual Christmas movie will premiere in the United States and Canada from Dec. 12 through Dec. 17.
A description reads, “A young mother labeled impure. A shepherd boy considered ‘unclean.’ Experience Jesus’ birth through their eyes as CHRISTMAS WITH THE CHOSEN: HOLY NIGHT blends THE MESSENGERS and THE SHEPHERD into one special remastered and re-scored story. Plus, a never-before-seen performance from Andrea and Matteo Bocelli highlights seven musical performances and two beautiful new monologues.”
“The special also includes the most fan-requested performances from the previous two specials: Brandon Lake’s ‘Gratitude,’ Matt Maher’s ‘Hark the Herald Angels Sing,’ Bonner Family’s ‘How Great Thou Art,’ Zach Williams’s ‘Go Tell It,’ One Voice Children’s Choir’s ‘What Child Is This,’ and the ‘Joy to the World’ finale featuring Phil Wickham and Maverick City Music,” the description concluded.
THE CHOSEN creator Dallas Jenkins reflected on the upcoming special in a press release: “I had the same reaction to the trailer as I did when we first blended THE SHEPHERD and THE MESSENGERS together. Tears. This Special captures the joy and meaning of the Jesus story more than anything we’ve done.”
Fathom Events CEO Ray Nutt added, “Beginning in 2021 with CHRISTMAS WITH THE CHOSEN: THE MESSENGERS, the collaboration between Fathom Events and The Chosen has been both ground-breaking and record-breaking. The first event in this collaboration brought more than 1.1M+ fans out to theaters – at the time, an all-time record for Fathom Events. With this success, it became clear that there is a huge audience for The Chosen and the desire to share this content with a community. After two additional releases, which saw another 1.5M+ fans go to theaters! We are really looking forward to this new holiday event for 2023.”
