Overview
- Fox announced The Life of Jesus as a 52‑episode podcast introduced by Ainsley Earhardt, with episodes scheduled to begin on November 30.
- Representatives for Kristen Bell, Brian Cox, Malcolm McDowell and others say the actors learned of the repackaging only shortly before the announcement.
- Fox News told Rolling Stone the series is proceeding with the full cooperation and participation of all the actors involved.
- The audio originates from the Truth & Life Dramatized Audio Bible recorded in 2010, which reporting says Gulfstream Studios owns and can legally license.
- Rolling Stone reported an email from a producer asking an actor not to reveal the material’s 2010 origin, and some social‑media users expressed dismay about the Fox Faith branding.
