The Carpenter’s Son: Exclusive Clip - IGN
A remote village in Roman-era Egypt erupts into spiritual combat as a carpenter, his wife, and their child become targets of supernatural forces in The Carpenter’s Son. Joseph (Nicolas Cage), Mary (FKA twigs), and their teenage son Jesus (Noah Jupe) have lived for years under constant threat, holding fast to their faith and customs. A quiet layover in a small settlement breaks that peace, unleashing mounting turmoil when a mysterious stranger (Isla Johnston) attempts to lure young Jesus away from the strict teachings of his father.
With every act of temptation, the boy is drawn toward a forbidden realm, while a frightened Joseph grasps that a dark power is at play. Violent, uncanny events follow Jesus, and he begins to experience terrifying visions of what lies ahead. Eventually, he uncovers the chilling truth about his new companion and reveals the child’s true name: Satan.
Writer-director Lotfy Nathan, drawing on his Coptic Christian heritage, delivers a carefully crafted, genre-defying supernatural thriller that fuse es images of the sacred and the sinister in an relentless struggle.
The Carpenter’s Son is currently accessible on digital platforms.
