Angel Studio’s ‘The King of Kings’ Hits $60M at the Box Office

Angel Studio’s animated faith-based flick ‘The Kings of Kings’ spent another week in the Top 10 box office this weekend, earning $4.18M despite a 77% drop from the previous week, bringing its total to $58M.

Written and directed by Seong-ho Jang and featuring the voices of Kenneth Branagh, Uma Thurman, Mark Hamill, Pierce Brosnan, Forest Whitaker, Ben Kingsley, and Oscar Isaac, the film “follows Charles Dickens, a young author who narrates the biography of Jesus Christ. Together, he and (sin son) Walter Dickens embark on an adventure as the master storyteller engages his youngest son’s vivid imagination.”

Buyoed last week by its Easter audience, the King of Kings has also managed to nab a rare A+ Cinema score and 97% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes (vs 65% fresh with critics).

I get tired of the same old animated expressions and characters who look the same, just wearing different clothes.

“ Mark Hamill?? That mark Hamill?”

His job prospects are down to conducting Star Wars themed bar mitzvahs.

Yes, that Mark Hamill. He did the voice of Herod.

One of the side benefits of this movie doing so well is that Hamill got so much hate on BlueSky for having a role in a Christian movie that he dropped his BlueSky account and slinked back to Twitter / X.

How about that. The tolerant liberals of Bluesky were distinctly intolerant of Luke Skywalker being involved with movie......

If that’s true, maybe he’s learned something about tolerance.

Yep. He is a Marxist, TDS-afflicted jerk. But he has a rare talent as a voice actor. One of the best.

Makes sense. A pro-abortionist doesn't have to do much acting to voice Herod's Massacre of the Innocents.

I get what you mean. I’ll make an exception for this movie though since it’s about my King.
