Jesus to Star in Virtual Reality FilmJesus will be played by actor Tim Fellingham, who calls the new Jesus film an "exciting" and "groundbreaking project." [CBN News] Filmmakers are rethinking how they tell the story of Jesus by creating a new virtual reality film. (Photo via CBN News) The groundbreaking Jesus film, called "Jesus VR—The Story of Christ," will be the first of its kind because it is shot with a different lens—virtual reality technology. That means viewers will watch the life, ministry, and crucifixion of Christ in a highly-immersive 360 degree format. Movie-goers will be able to see the Jesus story up close and personal with special virtual reality glasses or headsets instead of on the big screen. Viewers can purchase virtual glasses like Oculus Rift or Google Cardboard, an investment Director David Hensen believes is well worth it. "The viewers truly feel they are there with Jesus and His disciples," he said earlier this year. "This is the most powerful story of all time and virtual reality is the perfect way to tell it."

Jesus will be played by actor Tim Fellingham, who calls the new Jesus film an "exciting" and "groundbreaking project." "It's as exciting a take on the story of Christ as I've ever seen and its production values will absolutely set a new benchmark for virtual reality," Fellingham said. The movie is set to premiere Aug. 31 at the 2016 Venice Film Festival, but will be available for the public on Dec. 25.
