The first official photo from King of Kings has been released, giving us a look at the new animated feature led by Oscar Isaac, which is inspired by Charles Dickens‘ little-known short story about the life and times of Jesus. In the film, Isaac will be voicing the character of Jesus Christ.
“In the film, Charles and Walter Dickens embark on a multi-dimensional adventure as the master storyteller engages his youngest son’s vivid imagination with the fascinating life of Jesus, his well-known trials and tribulations, and his notable colleagues and foes,” reads the official synopsis. “The film’s rich animation allows the Dickens pair (and the family cat Willa) to become intrinsically immersed in the ancient tale, interacting with Jesus, his disciples and his detractors – while the seasoned actors behind the voices bring these well-known characters to animated life like never before. The result is an animated film that makes the biblical journey easily relatable, readily understood and captivatingly entertaining for families and, especially, to children of all ages.”
