Grylls, 50, spoke with CBN News at ChosenCon in Orlando, where he announced his upcoming series, “The Chosen in the Wild,” a partnership with Dallas Jenkins, the creator of “The Chosen,” which is entering its fifth season.
In the upcoming survival show, Grylls, who compared the series to his popular reality TV show, “Running Wild,” will journey out into the wilderness with various members of the Bible-based series’ cast. Four episodes of the show have already been filmed, with two remaining. The outstanding episodes, the survivalist said, will feature Jenkins and Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus in “The Chosen.”
“I’m really proud to announce a partnership with ‘The Chosen,’” Grylls said. “We’re doing a show called ‘The Chosen in the Wild,’ where I get to take cast members away on many ‘Running Wild’-type adventures, get to know their stories, see the real people, what they’re like, their background[s], and their journey through ‘The Chosen,’ their faith, and kind of how it’s changed them.”
Filming episodes with Jenkins and Roumie, he added, should be “good fun,” calling the episodes completed so far “amazing.”
