Wallace-who also wrote the Oscar-nominated script for Braveheart-confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that he and Gibson are working on a follow-up thanks, in large part, to huge demand from the Christian community. Rumors of a Passion sequel picked up steam last month when Gibson made some vague comments about the project while attending Liberty University’s graduation ceremony. But could it resurrect Mel Gibson as well? Though there’s no title yet, the new film will focus on the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Twelve years after Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ took the box office by storm, screenwriter Randall Wallace confirms that a sequel is in the works. But in Hollywood, turn around can take a little longer. According to the Bible, Christ rose from the dead after three days.
