This is an action-packed re-telling of one of the most dramatic and enduring stories from The Bible. In a lavish three-hour production we follow the life of David from his humble beginnings as a shepherd boy, through his famous victory over the giant Philistine warrior Goliath and on to his rapid elevation of great king and prophet. His whole life and 40-year reign, the highs and lows, the triumphs and tragedies, is brilliantly recreated in this new epic of our time.
The star-studded cast included Nathaniel parker (The Bodyguard, The Haunted Mansion, Inspector Lynley Mysteries) in the title role with Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek film and TV series, Armageddon) as God’s messenger, Samuel; Jonathan Pryce (Pirates of the Caribbean, Tomorrow Never Dies, Evita, Jumpin’ Jack Flash) as Saul nand Franco Nero (Die Hard 2, The Visitor, Force 10 from Navarone) as Nathan.
