CINEMA MEETS NEW TESTAMENT APOCRYPHA WATCH:
Nicholas Cage Plays the Father of Jesus in New Horror Film ‘The Carpenter’s Son.’ Nicolas Cage stars as Joseph in an upcoming horror film inspired by the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, a non-canonical text. The movie reimagines Jesus’ childhood with supernatural and unsettling elements (Milton Quintanilla, Crosswalk).
I have already noted that this film was in the works. But there is now a creepy trailer. It gives the release date, perhaps overly precisely, as "Fall 2025 AD."
