I just finished watching the show, “The Chosen One” (2023) on Netflix. The show takes place in 1999 and is a story about a 12 year-old boy who lives in Baja Sur, Mexico, and he and the townspeople believe he is the second coming of Jesus.
What I liked about the show was taking elements of Jesus’ story and placing it in a “modern” context. I was wondering if there are similar stories that fictionalize the second coming of Jesus or biblical elements in a modern context. There’s a graphic novel that the show is based on that I am going to read but was hoping for other books similar to this show’s story and themes.
