Set in the first century C.E, Mary Magdalene is a new drama about controversial biblical character, friend and follower of Jesus Christ, Mary Magdalene…

Garth Davis directs while Rooney Mara, Joaquin Phoenix and Chiwetel Ejiofor star…

I don’t know that Phoenix as Jesus Christ feels like a perfect casting instinctually. However I’m very open to be proven wrong, especially since Phoenix is quite the talent.

Also, not that this movie will be as brutal as Mel Gibson’s The Passion of The Christ (2004) –  but I kind of don’t want to sign up to witness all that violence again. It’s a tough one since I want to watch the story of Mary Magdalene, sadly there’s just no telling her story without Jesus particularly because she’s with him till the very unfortunate end. What to do, what to do…

Sarah-Sofie Boussnina, Ariane Labed, Ryan Corr, Tahar Rahim and Lubna Azabal also star.

Mary Maggalene Release Dates: March 16th, 2018 (UK); March 30th, 2018 (US)…

Happy Film Loving
