The Wonder Project’s epic series “House of David,” which depicts the life of the biblical figure David, has released its first official trailer.
The trailer puts an end to any doubts about what the highly anticipated series holds for audiences. “House of David” will be filled with intense battles with the Philistines, including David’s heroic battle against the giant Goliath.
“House of David” will release its first three episodes exclusively on Prime Video on Feb. 27, with new episodes to follow weekly. The series is produced by Nomadic Pictures and Argonauts, along with Kingdom Story Company and Lionsgate Television.
Jon Erwin (“Jesus Revolution,” “I Can Only Imagine,” “American Underdog”) created and co-directs the series alongside Jon Gunn (“Ordinary Angels,” “The Case for Christ”). The series also features Dallas Jenkins (“The Chosen,” “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever”) as a special advisor.

“It’s not about the greatness of the giant. It’s about the greatness of God,” David the shepherd boy says in the trailer.
The cast includes Ali Suliman (“Jack Ryan,” “Arthur the King”) as King Saul, Stephen Lang (“Avatar,” “Don’t Breathe”) as Samuel, Ayelet Zurer (“Angels and Demons,” “Man of Steel”) as Queen Ahinoam, and Martyn Ford (“Mortal Kombat 2,” “The Sandman”) as Goliath.
The “House of David” press release describes the series as follows:
“House of David” tells the story of the ascent of the biblical figure, David, who eventually becomes the most renowned and celebrated king of Israel. The series follows the once-mighty King Saul as he falls victim to his own pride. At the direction of God, the prophet Samuel anoints an unlikely, outcast teenager as the new king. As Saul loses his power over his kingdom, David finds himself on a journey to discover and fulfill his destiny, navigating love, loss, and violence in the court of the very man he’s destined to replace. As one leader falls, another must rise.
As the trailer concludes, David asks, “Can one stone change the course of history?”
Although many viewers already know the answer to that question, the series will bring one of the most renowned Bible stories to home theaters in a way it has never been seen before.
