À propos de cet audio
Mel Gibson is back in the global spotlight, facing a firestorm over his new film The Resurrection of the Christ. According to OK Magazine and Simon Mercieca, Gibson is reportedly facing credible assassination threats from religious extremists and far-right groups after casting Polish actress Kasia Smutniak, known for her pro-choice activism, as the Virgin Mary. The backlash has been especially intense in Poland, with conservative figures like Pawel Rybicki leading the charge. Security around Gibson has been significantly increased, and insiders say the level of anger and violent language has unsettled even the famously tough director. Production continues in Italy, with Gibson insisting the team move forward despite the controversy.
Gibson recently appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast, where he discussed the spiritual and physical challenges of making The Passion of the Christ, including unexplained events on set and the actor playing Jesus enduring real injuries. Rogan noted the unusual resistance Gibson faced from Hollywood, which Gibson described as a spiritual battle. The podcast appearance has sparked renewed interest in Gibson’s faith and filmmaking journey.
IMDb and CBR confirm that filming for The Resurrection of the Christ is underway, with Gibson describing the sequel as an “acid trip” and revealing it will be a two-part epic. The film picks up where The Passion of the Christ left off, following Christ’s journey through hell before the Resurrection. Jim Caviezel was set to reprise his role as Jesus, but de-aging technology costs led to a largely new cast.
Gibson’s business activities remain strong, with Icon Productions continuing to produce major hits. His net worth is estimated at $425 million, according to Pulse and The Economic Times, largely due to his success behind the camera and savvy investments.
Social media is buzzing with reactions to the casting controversy, with many praising Gibson’s bold choice and others condemning it. The debate shows no signs of slowing, making this one of the most significant moments in Gibson’s career in years.
