“The Chosen” –The #1 Crowdfunded Video Serious Coming Soon!
VidAngel, a leading streaming company which makes entertainment good for your home—has produced The Chosen: Season One and Two and currently working on it’s third season. The 8-episode first season tells the stories of characters in the Gospels who encountered Jesus, and were changed forever. Neal Harmon, CEO of VidAngel writes, “Two years ago, we embarked on a journey to create the first multi-season series about Jesus and broke the all-time crowdfunding record for a media project by raising over $10 million 2018. Seeing the investor support, the completed season one and reactions to the series from around the globe, we’ve come to realize this is the start of something very, very special. So we’ve raised our sights to pursue an ambitious multi-year strategy to make The Chosen bigger than the Game of Thrones billion-view record. More than 300 million Americans [were] stuck at home [covid], and likely growing tired of the relentless barrage of bad news and stress. The Chosen is a series about hope and inspiration, a show about the Gospels the whole family can celebrate together. We believe that’s why it’s seeing so much interest both here in the US and around the world.” The Chosen went on to become the 1st Entertainment Project to be released around the world in 180 countries on its own app. Due to the overwhelming response, and current run rate, it is projected that VidAngel will be able to produce a new season of the series The Chosen per year.
