"The King of Kings" is an upcoming animated film that presents the life of Jesus Christ through the storytelling of Charles Dickens. Directed by Seong-ho Jang and Jamie Thomason, the film is scheduled for release in the United States on April 11, 2025, just before Easter.
In an effort to mend his relationship with his son Walter, Charles Dickens narrates the story of Jesus Christ. As Walter's imagination brings the tale to life, they embark on a transformative journey witnessing Jesus's miracles, trials, and ultimate sacrifice. This narrative framework offers audiences a fresh perspective on themes of hope, love, and redemption.
