AceShowbiz - The Chosen is gearing up for a major event in its upcoming sixth season, which will take a unique approach to its release schedule. Rather than following the typical streaming-only rollout, the series will premiere the bulk of Season 6 on Prime Video this fall, but reserve its final episode for a special theatrical release in spring 2027.

Prime Video and 5&2 Studios officially announced that The Chosen Season 6 will launch on November 15, 2026, with a total of six episodes. The season will kick off with three episodes released simultaneously on the premiere date, followed by weekly episodes until December 6. However, unlike previous seasons, the season finale will not be available on streaming platforms at the same time as the rest of the season. Instead, fans will experience the concluding chapter on the big screen in a standalone theatrical event.

This season covers the significant and somber narrative of Jesus’ final day before the crucifixion. The official synopsis highlights the gravity of the storyline: "The hour has come. Before the sun sets, Jesus of Nazareth will be dead. Season Six captures the historic events of Jesus' final day through the lives of those who love Him—and those who condemn Him. Pharisees call it justice. Romans call it peace. Followers call it murder. But in the face of loneliness and death, Jesus stands resolute in his plan that has always led to one place: the cross. The Chosen Season Six reveals how Jesus' final hours changed the world forever."

Creator Dallas Jenkins shed light on the decision behind this dual-release strategy, explaining that the story’s importance warranted both a television season and a theatrical finale. He noted, "Everyone knows the basics of this part of the story, but not everyone knows the 'why' of the crucifixion and the extraordinary events of these 24 hours. We realized this not only deserved a season of television but a standalone full-length theatrical event as well. We wrote and filmed all of it with this in mind."

The main cast returning for Season 6 includes Jonathan Roumie as Jesus, Shahar Isaac as Peter, Paras Patel as Matthew, Elizabeth Tabish as Mary Magdalene, Noah James as Andrew, George H. Xanthis as John, Abe Bueno-Jallad as Big James, Vanessa Benavente as Mother Mary, Luke Dimyan as Judas, Richard Fancy as Caiaphas, Paul Ben-Victor as King Herod, and Andrew James Allen as Pontius Pilate.

The Chosen will be available for streaming on Prime Video in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Sub-Saharan Africa, the UK, and Latin America. Seasons 1 through 5 are already accessible on the platform in these regions. The theatrical finale planned for spring 2027 marks a distinctive way to close out the series’ latest chapter.
