Last weekend, nearly 6,000 fans of the hit series “The Chosen” gathered together at The Chosen Insiders Conference, better known as ChosenCon, in Orlando, Florida.
During the conference, attendees heard from cast members, directors, and the show’s creator Dallas Jenkins.
This was the second time ChosenCon has been held, and the conference almost doubled in size from its first meeting last year in Dallas.

On Friday night (Sept. 20), Jenkins surprised attendees with the announcement that his new 5&2 Studios has five new projects in development. He said he has been working on some of them “under your nose.”
Standing beside his wife, Amanda, Jenkins reassured fans that while their productions are growing and expanding, their mission to spread the gospel remains the same.

“So you might be wondering, before I announce all these projects, ‘Well, how is this actually gonna be made? How is this funded? How are you gonna remain who you are?’” Jenkins said. “And I just wanted to remind you and to reassure you…regardless of who they are funded by, absolutely nothing changes.”
“Our Bible consultants must approve of every single project that we do,” Jenkins said. “The creative control, the control of all of the content, is 100% ours—ultimately mine.”
“And every new project that we do, whether I’m the one directing it or not, everything must pass that test of being faithful to God, faithful to the Scriptures, honoring of the gospels, and the entire Bible,” Jenkins continued, adding that this will “never change.”
Jenkins shared that an animated series, titled “The Chosen Adventures,” and a six-episode unscripted adventure series, titled “The Chosen in the Wild With Bear Grylls,” will be released within the next year.
In addition to Seasons 5, 6, and 7 of “The Chosen,” future projects will include a three-season series that follows the story of Moses, a limited series about the life of Joseph, and next chapter of “The Chosen” based on the Acts of the Apostles.
