What if the Messiah returned today?


MANILA, Philippines – What would happen if the Messiah returned to the modern world? This is the idea explored in Netflix’s upcoming series, Messiah.

In the series, CIA officer Eva Geller (Michelle Monaghan) begins an investigation into the origins of a mysterious, charismatic man (Mehdi Dehbi) who is gaining a cult following of people who believe he is performing miracles.

As the man’s influence grows, Geller races to discover whether he is a divine entity as his followers believe, or a powerful con artist who could dismantle the world’s geopolitical order.

The series also includes the perspectives of various characters around the world, including an Israeli intelligence officer (Tomer Sisley), a Texas preacher (John Ortiz), his daughter (Stefania LaVie Owen), a Palestinian refugee (Sayyid El Alami) and a journalist (Jane Adams) covering the story as it unfolds.

The series also stars Melinda Page Hamilton, Wil Traval, Fares Landoulsi, Dermot Mulroney and Beau Bridges.
