First Teaser for The Carpenter’s Son Sets Fall 2025 Release for Nicolas Cage’s Biblical Horror

The film reimagines Jesus’ childhood as a supernatural tale inspired by the Infancy Gospel of Thomas.

Overview

  • Magnolia Pictures released the first teaser, confirming a theatrical window of Fall 2025 A.D. without a specific date.
  • Nicolas Cage plays the Carpenter (Joseph), FKA twigs portrays the Mother (Mary), and Noah Jupe is the Boy (Jesus).
  • Written and directed by Lotfy Nathan, the movie frames a holy family in Roman Egypt as the Boy’s emerging powers draw horrors both natural and divine.
  • Outlets note the teaser’s unsettling tone, with early online reactions describing the footage as unnerving and striking.
  • The premise and credited inspiration from the apocryphal Infancy Gospel of Thomas position the film as a provocative, genre-bending take on a biblical story.
