3 Things You Didn’t Know About Jonathan Roumie

Oh yeah, that’s the guy from The Chosen!

There is so much more to this guy than his on-screen miracles. Here are three things about Jonathan Roumie that might just surprise you…

1. He’s a Master of Impressions

Turns out Jonathan can do a spot-on impression of Ray Romano, and Marlon Brando. Turns out he used to do voice-over for an animated series called “Celebrity Death Match.” He actually started his film/TV career as a research intern for SNL. It’s wild seeing someone go from sacred to silly in the blink of an eye.

2. He’s a Musician?? And Working With Michael W. Smith??

It wasn’t planned. It wasn’t staged. Just two friends making music—and now Jonathan Roumie’s got drum credits on a Michael W. Smith song. How cool is that? Michael ended up loving the vibe so much that they recorded Jonathan’s drumming and used it on the track for his newest song, “Arms Around the Sun.”

3. He’s Starring in a Rom-Com With Kevin James

You read that right. Jonathan Roumie is co-starring alongside Kevin James in an upcoming romantic comedy called Solo Mio. Based on what we know so far, the movie promises heart, humor, and a side of Roumie we’ve never seen before.

I guess the guy who plays Jesus can have layers. Jonathan Roumie continues to surprise us, and we can’t wait to see where God takes him next.

What’s even more exciting? About 30% of the audience for the theatrical release are non-believers.

That means people who might never step into a church are hearing the gospel in a movie theater or on a random show on Amazon Prime they decided to watch. It’s a beautiful reminder that God can work through anything—even a crowdfunded show about Jesus and His disciples.
