While talking to Stephen Colbert of “The Late Show,” Gibson revealed that “Resurrection” will feature characters from other realms. The movie will also be a somewhat different retelling of what happened after Jesus Christ’ death, he said.

“It’s not just some chronological telling of just that event. That could be boring, and you think, ‘Oh, we read that,'” he said. “But what are the other things around it that happened? Sure, you’re going all over the place. What happened in three days? I’m not sure, but it’s worth thinking about. Get your imagination going.”

Gibson said he will be teaming up with “Braveheart” screenwriter Randall Wallace to work on “Resurrection.”
