‘The Chosen’ Season 6 Release Date, Time, Where To Watch & Trailer

The final hours of Jesus’ life are about to unfold in a new chapter of one of streaming’s most watched faith based dramas. Season 6 of The Chosen will premiere on November 15 on Prime Video in the U.S. and internationally, giving longtime viewers the next installment of a story that has been building for years.

5&2 Studios has confirmed that The Chosen season 6 will premiere on November 15, 2026, on Prime Video in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America. The season marks a turning point for the franchise as it moves toward the climax of its seven season arc.

When ‘The Chosen’ Season 6 Episodes Drop

Season 6 will launch with three episodes on November 15, followed by the release of one episode each week through December 6. That structure gives fans an immediate binge of the opening chapters before shifting into a weekly rhythm for the remainder of the season.

Episode 6 is set for December 6, 2026 on Prime Video, closing out the standard streaming run of the season. As previously announced, the season 6 finale and season 7 premiere will be released theatrically, with the season 6 finale arriving in spring 2027.

Amazon MGM Studios and 5&2 Studios will release the Season 6 finale as a feature film exclusively in theaters on March 12, 2027. Season 7 will then open with a feature film depicting the resurrection of Jesus, exclusively in theaters on March 31, 2028.

This hybrid rollout is a departure from how the show has released new chapters in the past. The change marks a shift from prior seasons, which debuted in theaters first before arriving on streaming months later. That shift traces back to a corporate deal reshaping the show’s distribution model going forward.

Where To Watch ‘The Chosen’ Season 6

The pact between the two companies includes theatrical and streaming rights to The Chosen’s upcoming final two seasons, which will follow the crucifixion in Season Six and the resurrection in Season Seven, with Lionsgate handling global distribution for The Chosen and The Chosen In The Wild with Bear Grylls. That agreement is what places the new season squarely on one platform rather than splitting it across theatrical windows the way earlier chapters were handled.

The historical drama’s long-awaited return comes after the 2025 deal that Amazon MGM Studios signed with 5&2 Studios, the production company behind The Chosen, which provides Prime Video with streaming rights. Viewers who want to catch up before the new season arrives have plenty of time to do so.

The Chosen Seasons One through Five are now streaming on Prime Video, meaning newcomers can work through the full story of ‘The Chosen’ before the events of Season 6 begin. The show’s audience has grown steadily with each season, and the streaming exclusivity should make it easier for casual viewers to jump in without hunting down theatrical showings.

What ‘The Chosen’ Season 6 Will Cover

The new season centers on a single, devastating day. According to the official synopsis, the hour has come, and before the sun sets, Jesus of Nazareth will be dead. Season Six captures the historic events of Jesus’ final day through the lives of those who love him and those who condemn him, with the Pharisees calling it justice, the Romans calling it peace, and his followers calling it murder.

Despite the tight timeframe, the production behind ‘The Chosen’ treated this stretch of story as worthy of an entire season. Creator Dallas Jenkins said everyone knows the basics of this part of the story, but not everyone knows the why of the crucifixion and the extraordinary events of these 24 hours. Jenkins, who also serves as Chairman and Chief Creative Officer of 5&2 Studios, wanted the season to look deeper into the reasoning behind a historical event rather than simply restating what audiences already know.

The production itself required unusual demands from the cast and crew. Jenkins told KSL TV in May 2025 that because most scenes take place at night, production required overnight shoots, a detail that speaks to how much weight the crew placed on capturing this particular stretch of the story with accuracy. Jenkins also said the actors were all there for each other, and that everybody carried a heavy burden this season as a performer.

‘The Chosen’ Season 6 Trailer And Cast

The first footage from the new season has already given fans a preview of the tone to expect. In the newly released trailer, Jesus is shown being escorted to his crucifixion in his final hours, with a determined yet ominous voiceover saying, “This is the way,” and a chained Jesus responding, “Your will.”

The returning ensemble reflects the scale of the story being told. Jonathan Roumie portrays Jesus alongside Shahar Isaac as Peter, Paras Patel as Matthew, Elizabeth Tabish as Mary Magdalene, Noah James as Andrew, George H. Xanthis as John, Abe Bueno Jallad as Big James, Vanessa Benavente as Mother Mary, Luke Dimyan as Judas, Richard Fancy as Caiaphas, Paul Ben Victor as King Herod, and Andrew James Allen as Pontius Pilate.

Reaction to the announcement has already been active among the show’s fan base. Comments on the release date reveal fans anticipating an emotional viewing experience, with one attendee of a fan convention noting they were shown the season’s first episode early and describing the tone as consistent with the rest of the season. That kind of early buy in suggests the show’s core audience is already engaged well before the November premiere.

With ‘The Chosen’ Season 6 set to bring Jesus’ final hours to the screen in a format the series has never used before, how do you think this new streaming first rollout will change the way longtime fans experience the crucifixion story.
