We will not expand on this in the motherhood show . But what if we took our time with that, in an animated show that was witty and fun and that adults could really appreciate that right, we couldn’t afford for our second project to come out of the gate going, ‘You know, It’s nice.’ But we really want to make sure that the audience really loves it.”

The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls

Release date: TBA

Another unexpected spinoff from The Chosen Is The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls. As its name suggests, The upcoming series will feature famous British adventurer and survivalist Bear Grylls, Known for Man vs. Wild And his celebrity-filled survival skills reality show Running Wild with Bear Grylls.

Under Moshe Spinoff

Release date: TBA

Of the five The Chosen Spinoffs in the works, three of which will be standard live-action continuations of the original series. The first of them will revolve around Moses, who does not appear in the first Christian historical drama. Once upon a time The Chosen Wraps after season 7, Dallas Jenkins will focus on developing (aka writing, directing and showrunning) the Moses spinoff. So, the upcoming project will likely not materialize until 2028 or later, based on how long the breaks between seasons of The Chosen are.

Jenkins compares Moses’ story to The SopranosClaiming that the story of the Hebrew prophet has more “pop culture, historical moments, and phrases and images” than anything else in the Bible. Jenkins is already planning to tell Moses’ story over three seasons. With eight to ten episodes in each installment. Each season of the untitled Moses spin-off will also revolve around one “era” of Moses’ life. As Jenkins explains:

“One is the salvation of Egypt. Two is the parting of the Red Sea, the escape, the exodus from Egypt and the progression to the promised land. And then the third season would be after the 40 years of wandering in the desert, like them” If he will really capture the promised land, Moses did not get a chance to experience it.

Because The Chosen will finally end with seven seasons, Jenkins apparently wants to develop shows with fewer seasons. That way, it won’t take years for the spinoffs to complete, and the filmmaker can focus on telling as many stories as possible. Jenkins’ mindset makes sense, especially given how many ideas he has for The Chosen Universe.
