Legendary Director Announces He’s Making a Film About Jesus

While visiting the Vatican over the weekend, acclaimed director Martin Scorsese announced that he plans to make a new film about Jesus, according to reports.

Scorsese briefly met with ⛪Pope Francis prior to the declaration of his future cinematic vision.

⛪The pope addressed a room full of individuals in the arts, including Scorsese, and stated, “Today the church needs your genius because it needs to protest, to call out and to shout.”

The director later felt moved and said, “I have responded to ⛪The pope’s appeal to artists in the only way I know how: by imagining and writing a screenplay for a film about Jesus,” Variety reported.
