After weeks of filming in the striking landscapes of Utah, the cast and crew of the acclaimed biblical series The Chosen are heading back to Texas to complete production on Season 7 — the final chapter of the groundbreaking show that has captivated audiences worldwide.

The Chosen, which dramatizes the life of Jesus Christ and those who followed him, has called North Texas home since Season 3, primarily filming at the Hoblitzelle Camp in Midlothian. While a portion of Season 7 was shot in Utah during June, the production has now wrapped there and is returning to its primary base in Texas for the remaining scenes.
The decision to film part of the final season in Utah carried deep emotional weight for many involved. Several cast members took to social media to share their farewells to the state that had become a second home over the past six years.
Jordan Walker Ross, who plays Little James and hails from Arlington, Texas, posted a heartfelt message on Instagram: “I started filming in Utah six years ago for Season 2 of The Chosen. Yesterday was my last day in Utah for Season 7, our final season. So many great memories here — and they flew by in the blink of an eye. We still have a lot more to shoot in Texas but it’s sad to say goodbye to this place.”
Abe Bueno-Jallad, who portrays Big James and is originally from El Paso, also reflected on the profound impact of filming in Utah. “Thank you Utah and goodbye. Six years of filming this show amidst these beautiful landscapes has impacted my life in ways only my own eyes can describe,” he wrote.

Noah James, who plays Andrew, shared a similarly touching tribute: “I will always remember the last day in Utah. In those final moments, the entire cast and crew came together as the wind finally stopped blowing and we captured the last scenes, nearly closing the entire show. I love everyone involved and am so grateful for them.”

Season 7 will depict the Resurrection of Jesus, bringing the series to its powerful conclusion. The show has already built a massive global following with its intimate, character-driven approach to biblical storytelling. Season 6 is scheduled to premiere on November 15, 2026, on Prime Video, continuing the story through the Crucifixion.
The first episode of Season 7 is set to release in theaters on March 31, 2028, though details about the full season rollout and episode count remain under wraps. Seasons 1 through 5 are currently available to stream on Prime Video.
The Chosen stands apart from traditional biblical adaptations by focusing heavily on the personal stories, struggles, and relationships of Jesus’ followers. This humanizing approach has resonated deeply with viewers, many of whom have found renewed faith or a fresh perspective on familiar scripture through the series.
The return to Texas marks more than just a logistical move — it represents a full-circle moment for a production that has grown from humble independent beginnings into a worldwide phenomenon. The cast and crew’s emotional connection to both locations reflects the deep bonds formed during years of storytelling together.
As production on the final season continues in Texas, anticipation continues to build for how The Chosen will portray one of the most significant events in Christian theology. The combination of stunning cinematography, powerful performances, and faithful yet creative storytelling has set the series apart, making its conclusion all the more significant.
For fans who have followed the journey from Season 1, the final season promises to deliver an emotionally resonant conclusion worthy of the series’ legacy. The move back to Texas ensures that the story that began in familiar territory will also find its ending there — bringing the entire production full circle in more ways than one.
The Chosen continues to prove that thoughtful, high-quality faith-based entertainment can thrive in today’s streaming landscape. As the team prepares to film the final chapters in Texas, one thing is clear: this beloved series is preparing to deliver a memorable farewell to its dedicated audience.
