The Chosen One: American Jesus Adapt Releases New Preview Images

We have preview images for Netflix's The Chosen One, the series adaptation of Mark Millar & Peter Gross' American Jesus set for August 16th.

After surviving a freak accident, Jodie, a twelve-year-old boy from Santa Rosalia, Baja California Sur, discovers he has Jesus Christ-like power. He can turn water into wine, make the crippled walk… he can even raise the dead. How will he deal with his destiny and lead the world through a conflict that's been thousands of years in the making? That's what awaits Netflix viewers this week – with The Chosen One (the streamer's live-action series adaptation of writer Mark Millar and artist Peter Gross' American Jesus) set to hit screens on Wednesday, August 16th.
