Actors as varied as Christian Bale, Willem Dafoe, and Jim Caviezel have played Jesus Christ on the big screen, and Rodrigo Santoro will do it in "Ben-Hur" this summer, but first will be Ewan McGregor as the Son of God in "Last Days In The Desert," and the first trailer has arrived showing him in the holy role.
Also starring Tye Sheridan, Ciaran Hinds, and Ayelet Zurer, with Rodrigo Garcia ("Albert Nobbs") directing, the drama follows Jesus into the desert, where he spent forty days and forty nights in a psychological showdown with the Devil, with nary an AirBnb in sight.
