Jonathan Roumie said, \u201c[Things] have gone remarkably well. I arrived feeling like I don\u2019t know how this is going to go, and praise God, it went really well. Day two [of filming] was even easier than day one, much lighter. We were able to have some time to kind of joke around a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even though it\u2019s been over half a year since the cast wrapped filming for Season 4, they felt like they were able to quickly return to their characters and fall into their close relationships. \u201cI blinked my eyes, and I\u2019m starting season five now. Has there been a break? I don\u2019t know. It\u2019s nice weather\u2014that\u2019s a first for \u2018The Chosen,\u2019\u201d Elizabeth Tabish said. \u201cI\u2019m proud of how we\u2019ve really settled into our familiarity with each other and our sense of family,\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sTISrnSews8\">added<\/a>\u00a0Abe Bueno-Jallad. \u201cA lot of things are shifting so quickly, and I\u2019m allowing myself to be impacted by them because this just feels like such a different season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the comfort they feel, the cast is aware of the weightiness of what they are portraying. After an emotional end to Season 4, Season 5 brings Jesus to the brink of the crucifixion, walking through the events of Holy Week. \u201cThe response we\u2019ve been getting from the cast and crew has been so cool,\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thedirect.com\/article\/the-chosen-season-5-release-announcement-when\">said<\/a>\u00a0creator Dallas Jenkins. \u201cThey\u2019ve been saying this is the best season yet. Season 5, as you might know, covers Holy Week. But man, it takes longer than a week to film it, I can tell you that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sTISrnSews8?si=_H3j3n8pC3e2zHEf\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>George H. Xanthis, \u201cIt felt like with the first scene as well, it felt really kind of personal and intimate. It\u2019s good to get the season started with something like that. It kind of puts you into a really a bit of a zone before you even start.\u201d Noah James added, \u201cIt\u2019s also like good to not take anything for granted because the things that we\u2019re dealing with in these scenes, like if you just go, oh yes, I know that story\u2014if you really take it for face value, you\u2019re like, what is going on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>James continued, \u201cThe things [Jesus] says to us as we\u2019re sitting down, like he breaks it down, and it\u2019s super intense to really sort of hear what he\u2019s saying and to imagine what it would be like to be sitting there overlooking the Mount of Olives and hearing this will happen, and then this will happen, and then you\u2019ll die, and then the end of the age will come, and you\u2019re like, whoa.\u201d With Season 5 now in production, many fans are still waiting for Season 4 to hit streaming after the season\u2019s theatrical premiere.<\/p>\n<p>Jenkins told <em>Variety,<\/em> \u201cThe response to Season 4 has been overwhelming so far, which provides a nice lift for us as we head into filming. Of course, we\u2019re about to try to portray the most famous week in the history of humans, so the euphoria from the previous season never lasts long. The entire Season 6 will cover one day, so covering one week in Season 5 feels luxurious.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While there have been some hiccups with distribution that have caused significant delays, Jenkins recently revealed that Season 4 should be available for streaming soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The cast and crew of \u201cThe Chosen\u201d are excited to get back into the swing of things as filming for Season 5 begins.
