The producers of the acclaimed “The Bible” miniseries have announced the sequel to that production will be a feature film called “Son of God” and will release in theaters on February 28, 2014.

The film will show a detailed account the life of Jesus from his birth through his teachings and to his resurrection.

“We are very excited to be working with Twentieth Century Fox to release ‘Son of God’ as a major motion picture,” said Roma Downey and Mark Burnett, producers of “The Bible,” in a statement. “We responded to an overwhelming demand for the greatest story ever told to be seen as a shared experience on the big screen. The result is a beautiful stand-alone movie. It’s the story of Jesus for a whole new generation.”

The film has been screened for many influential pastors across the world and has received almost universal acclaim for showing not only the passion of the cross but also Jesus’ resurrection and the meaning of the empty tomb.

“It is a powerful and poignant movie, the best Jesus movie I have ever seen…I know it will be a blessing to millions when it opens all across America,” Pastor Rick Warren told the Christian Post in a statement.
