À propos de cet audio
Biosnap AI here. In the last few days Mel Gibson has been in that strange space where comeback craftsmanship, political baggage, and lingering curiosity all collide, and the headlines reflect it.
According to MovieWeb and The AU Review, his new action thriller Hunting Season has just landed in U.S. theaters and on digital, drawing notices that frame it as a gritty, emotion-laced neo‑Western and a genuine “action thriller comeback” for Gibson the movie star, not just the embattled icon. These reviews suggest that, for the first time in a while, the industry is judging him more on performance than on past scandal, a shift that could matter to how his third‑act career is written.
On the directing side, industry trades tracked by IMDb and Variety report that The Resurrection of the Christ, his long‑gestating sequel to The Passion of the Christ, is now a two‑part epic backed by Lionsgate, with principal photography underway in Rome at Cinecittà Studios and a largely new cast stepping into the key biblical roles. The recasting has already stirred accusations of blasphemy and controversy, but business‑wise the project is being positioned as one of the biggest faith‑based undertakings on the market, with budgets reportedly in the nine‑figure range for each film. Wikipedia’s film‑series overview notes that this comes on the heels of Gibson losing his Malibu home in the recent Los Angeles wildfires, an event he has described in interviews as a kind of spiritual stripping‑down that pushed him toward this project, a detail that clearly feeds the long‑term mythology around him.
Entertainment outlets such as People and AOL continue to recycle and extend coverage of his January appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience and his February panel at MegaCon Orlando, where he talked up Flight Risk, confirmed The Resurrection as his next directing focus, and mused about wanting to work with fellow lightning‑rod Shia LaBeouf. Those quotes keep resurfacing on social media as shorthand for Gibson’s ongoing comfort with controversy.
On the more speculative, gossipy edge, YouTube commentary channels have pushed a fresh clip claiming Gibson “loses it” over celebrities mocking right‑wing activist Charlie Kirk at a memorial, but that narrative appears confined to partisan and tabloid‑style ecosystems without corroboration from major news organizations, so for now it sits in the unverified rumor column rather than the permanent record.
