"The Bible" on the Big Screen? (Clip(s) of the Day)

So first a bit of news.... according to The Hollywood Reporter, Mark Burnett says that he is prepping a theatrical release of a new cut of "The Bible."

Specifically, the article says:

"We're cutting a movie version right now, a three-hour version of Jesus and [we have] many, many offers from theaters globally," executive producer Mark Burnett told The Hollywood Reporter on Monday at NBCUniversal summer press day.  Burnett said the movie version will have a big focus on the Resurrection. He is eyeing a fall release."

Now, I obviously don't know for sure, but it seems to me this cut would have to include unaired footage that was not in the original "Bible" series.  And, as some of you may have noticed like I did, they definitely have unaired footage, because they accidentally used it on a couple of their "previously on" recap intros at the beginning of the episode, even though it was never actually previously on the show, hee.  So we'll see what happens, but it would be cool to see "The Bible" on the big screen for sure.  

In honor of this news, today's Clip of the Day is of Diogo (and Mark & Roma and our #FF @DarwinShaw) doing some "red carpet" press before "The Bible Experience" that took place in New York when "The Bible" was airing.  I chose this clip because it's lesser seen "raw" footage, and you get to see Diogo handle the press like a pro who's done American press for 10 years, AND be funny, even when he's clearly cold.  :)    (Also fast forward to near the end to see how un-Peter like Darwin looks "in real life," hee!)

UPDATED! Interviews with Diogo about "The Bible" you may have missed

UPDATED ON 4/19 to include a "new to us" interview with Diogo, Roma Downey, and Darwin Shaw from Insidereel.com:


Since some of you may have only recently discovered Diogo and "The Bible" via the Blu Ray & DVD sets or encore viewings, you may have missed some of the great interviews did Diogo did to promote the series prior to it airing.  So, we've gathered some of them here.  We have to say, Diogo is SO good at press, even with the occasionally embarrassing question.  Diogo's a good sport, and make sure you check out him "blessing" Nancy O'Dell towards the end of this first up ET Online interview.  It's a sweet moment.  Enjoy!
