Nov. 14 (UPI) -- Jesus Christ, the religious figure millions of people around the globe regard as the son of god, has been portrayed numerous times in television and cinema, perhaps most memorably by Jim Caviezel in 2004's The Passion of the Christ and Max von Sydow in 1965's The Greatest Story Ever Told.
The Carpenter's Son is the latest re-imagining of Jesus' brief, but influential life. Set for theatrical release Friday, the supernatural thriller features A Quiet Place alum Noah Jupe as the young messiah.
"Joseph (Nicolas Cage), Mary (FKA twigs), and their teenage son Jesus have lived under threat for years, clinging to their faith and traditions. But a stopover in a small settlement unleashes growing chaos when a mysterious girl (Isla Johnston) tries to entice young Jesus to abandon his devout father's rules," a synopsis reads.
"With every pull of temptation, the boy is lured into a forbidden world, as his father Joseph realizes to his horror it is the work of a demonic force powerful enough to rival his faith."
