Can Jesus Save Hollywood?

The Rest Is Entertainment

Tuesday, 22 April 2025 - 55 minutes

Has Christian movie making resurrected the Box Office? Is 'Reacher' America's favourite TV Show? Why are celebrities obsessed with making hot sauces?


Richard Osman and Marina Hyde explore the phenomenal success of religious programming in Hollywood - including the smash hit from Angel Studios 'King Of Kings'. But why are LA's rich and famous flocking to church all of a sudden, and are they all praying for Justin Baldoni?


Severance and The White Lotus are some of the most talked about shows in the world, but what about Lee Child's Reacher? Richard looks into the history of getting the anti-hero onto screen.


Finally we get saucy with Marina's favourite movie-star Glen Powell. His affordable condiments have gone on sale in Walmart, but will they cut the mustard?
