The official trailer for “The Chosen: The Last Supper” released on Thursday.

“I think I’m more excited to deliver this trailer than any we’ve done. Which isn’t a coincidence because I feel the same way about Season Five as a whole,” Dallas Jenkins, creator of “The Chosen,” wrote in a caption of the clip. “This is our most kick-butt content yet because we cover joy, pain, loyalty, betrayal, excitement, anger, sadness, and fear, sometimes within one episode.”

The two-and-a-half minute trailer opens with a conversation between Christ’s apostle Judas and High Priest Joseph ben Caiaphas. It is followed by scenes of Holy Week and Christ’s journey through Jerusalem.

“The takeaway for you from this season: Can you believe and follow even when you don’t understand? Yes, it’s sad and heartbreaking because we’re getting closer to the cross, but we’re also going to get to see some of the most iconic and deeply moving moments from Scripture,” Jenkins wrote.

He continued, “The triumphal entry, the turning of the tables, the betrayal by Judas, and the Last Supper...all set against the biggest backdrop and sets we’ve ever used with a new widescreen format that demands to be seen on the big screen. But of course, we continue our obsession to humanize and authenticate everyone involved.”

“The table is set. I can’t wait for you to see this in theaters.”
