Guideposts interviews Diogo

Love his passion and respect for acting and this role!  It so showed in his brilliant portray of "Jesus," which still moves me to tears.  Can't even imagine what it will be like on the big screen... thankfully we only have one more day to wait to find out.  :)

What a great, "real" interview.  I really appreciate Diogo's personal take and insight on the character.  It was so reflected in his portrayal of Jesus, to me, and made all the difference, to me.  And yay!  Diogo's going to be at the Emmys!  Fingers crossed The Bible wins AND maybe we'll see Diogo on the Red Carpet!  :)  The Emmys will air live on CBS on Sunday, September 22nd, at 8PM ET/5PM PST.  

And another big thank you to fan Keri Rose for sending in this video!   Much appreciated! 

Oh! I also want to say a special hello to all the new fans/visitors to the blog from Australia who are just now seeing The Bible and Diogo's amazing work as Jesus!  Welcome, friends down under, we're so glad to have you!  :)

The Contenders: Diogo Morgado's human touch in 'Bible's' Jesus

'The Bible' miniseries raised Diogo Morgado to a new level of stardom, and the role of Jesus taught him that acting classes can't quite prepare an actor for the role of the son of God.
By Sam Adams

Executive producers Mark Burnett and Roma Downey had lofty aspirations for their miniseries "The Bible," but the Twitter fans who dubbed Diogo Morgado "Hot Jesus" found more earthly pleasures in the History program as well. Morgado wasn't well known outside his native Portugal before the first of his five episodes aired on the History Channel, but given that the series' ratings topped 13 million U.S. viewers some weeks, it's safe to say he's a recognizable face nowadays. ("I know you from somewhere ... church?") Film roles as a race car driver ("Born to Race: Fast Track") and a small-time criminal's devoted friend ("Red Butterfly") are upcoming, but until then, he'll have to settle for being best known as the son of God.
