Mel Gibson's The Resurrection of the Christ?

Sad Professor

A follow-up to The Passion of the Christ is in the works according to Jim Caviezel. As you recall, the first film ended with a cliffhanger of Jesus coming back to life and going out to kick ass. Could this be the start of a Bible Expanded Universe? Lord help us!

Caviezel, 49, confirmed he will reprise his role as Jesus in the planned film about the resurrection of Christ. "There are things that I cannot say that will shock the audience," he says. "It's great. Stay tuned."

Gibson and his star have been tight-lipped on details of how the new film will move forward. But the actor says he's been inspired in his talks with Gibson by the direction the project is taking.

"I won’t tell you how he’s going to go about it," Caviezel says. "But I’ll tell you this much, the film he’s going to do is going to be the biggest film in history. It’s that good."

edit - beaten to it ..

To be fair, while it's hardly an exciting prospect Gibson is one of the better directors working today and knows how to tell a good story. He's like a more dependable Ron Howard, one who isn't afraid to take risks or put his money where his mouth is.

I'd be genuinely curious to see what Mel could do here. The sequel jokes ain't great lads.

I'm convinced the first easter fell on the exact same date it will this year.

"As Jesus arose from the tomb, he looked at his disciple's and screamed , April Fools.

Saint Peter dropped to his knees and exclaimed "You ****er".
