(Added 11/27/14) As noted in the updates at top, on 11/27/14, Variety published an interview with Ridley Scott in which he said that it’s time for Hollywood to stop bashing people of faith. And, from what I’ve personally seen and heard from publicists and studios, this renewed sensitivity to Christian moviegoers has only grown stronger since Noah came out.ĥa. Even with the controversial Noah, Paramount eventually realized its error in marketing and released a statement that Noah was “inspired by” and not a direct adaptation of the Biblical account.

With each passing month in 2014, movie studios seem more and more eager to find a hit with the faith-based crowd. (Though I was surprised by the casting choices for the Egyptian roles.)ĥ. Although studios can be sneaky with what footage they select for trailers, by all accounts the first official trailer for Exodus depicts a film that follows the Biblical account closely.

People in non-Christian communities are more protective of the Moses story than they are of Noah - at least, that’s what I’ve seen in my friendships and associations with non-Christians over the years.Ĥ. Noah, however, does not have the same place in our culture’s conscious of Political Correctness. The Exodus story is such a critical core to cultures - from the Ten Commandments in our judicial system to Judaism and its memorializing of the Exodus story every year during Passover - that it would, in my estimation, be much harder to get a script through Hollywood that desecrates the Exodus account. Noah’s account has mysterious oddities like the Nephilim and the sons of God, which just beg for fantastical reinterpretation by artists with vivid imaginations.ģ. There are more details in the Bible, for one thing. Moses and the Exodus is less open to reinterpretation and subversion compared to Noah. Scott has always struck me as a guy who just wants to tell a really good story and make a great work of cinematic art.Ģ. Ridley Scott, in my opinion, does not have a history of injecting his private beliefs with the kind of aggression that we saw with Aronofsky in Noah. Here are five other reasons why I think Exodus will stay closer to the Bible than Noah:ġ. What he is doing, however, is zooming in on the story of brotherhood between Moses and his half-brother Ramses, the same specific plot device that made Prince of Egypt resonate so effectively and broadly with millions of people, religious and non-religious alike.įive (And a Half) Other Reasons Why “Exodus” Could Be a Hit for Christians Ridley Scott, of course, is not making a cute animated family film. And, as far as I know, none of the filmmakers behind Prince of Egypt were Christians, and I knew plenty of non-Christians who loved it and went to see it.
