I directed JUDAS. We shot the film in Morocco in the summer of 2001, and have been trying to get ABC to air it ever since. The controversy surrounding THE PASSION finally convinced the network to schedule JUDAS. The Executive Producer was Fr. Frank Desiderio, C.S.P. The script was written by multiple Emmy-winner Tom Fontana. Coincidentally, several technical personnel worked both on JUDAS and later on THE PASSION. We shot on many of the sets and locations used by Ridley Scott in GLADIATOR. I am a Catholic, and I take my faith seriously. I tried to humble myself before the Spirit and make a film that offers a new perspective on Judas while remaining faithful to the Gospels and the message and mission of Jesus. I'll tell you what -- I wasn't going to watch this movie, but I will make a point of watching this, simply because you are a fellow freeper.
Hope you like it.
