Press Release: “The Chosen” Season 6 Filming Draws Passionate Fans to Utah
Goshen, Utah — In mid-May, the set of the hit series “The Chosen” buzzed with an unusual energy as over 600 background actors gathered, mostly unpaid fans of the show, to partake in filming for Season 6. Amidst whispered excitement, the atmosphere shifted from stillness to applause as the scene—a confrontation between Roman soldier Atticus and Pharisee Yanni—was successfully completed.
Filmmaking for the sixth season is primarily taking place in Goshen and Midlothian, Texas, with scenes set against a meticulously crafted representation of Jerusalem, reflecting the dedication of its builders. Creator Dallas Jenkins noted, “When they’re here on set, it’s even more so because they’re literally part of the scene,” furthering the relationship between the production and its audience.
Many extras, like Karla Cameron from Atlanta and Simona Pester from Belfast, traveled from afar to support the series, driven by a shared passion for its message. “The Chosen,” a crowdfunded project, has gained an extraordinary viewership of over 280 million worldwide, demonstrating its impact in bringing biblical narratives to life. Jenkins expressed gratitude for fans’ contributions, making them co-creators in the storytelling journey.
