Mel Gibson is currently heading for the Venice Film Festival where he is set to unveil the much-anticipated Hacksaw Ridge, a film we’re really looking forward to seeing. The actor and filmmaker has been speaking with Greg Laurie at the SoCal Harvest (via The Playlist) about the plans for the his follow-up to The Passion of the Christ, The Resurrection.
“Of course, that is a huge undertaking,” Gibson said. “And you know, it’s not the ‘Passion 2.’ It’s called ‘The Resurrection.’ Of course, that’s a very big subject and it needs to be looked at because we don’t want to just do a simple rendering of it — you know, read what happened.”
“But in order to read it, experience and explore probably deeper meanings of what it’s about, it’s going to take some doing and Randall Wallace is up to the task,” Gibson added. “He is also, as well as a brilliant writer, he is a great director. He directed We Were Soldiers and Heaven Is For Real and stuff. So, he is a good writer and director.”
Gibson is expected to start work on The Resurrection as soon as promotional duties are completed on Hacksaw Ridge which is set to open in the US on November 4th. Watch the full interview below.
