Kevin Sorbo: ‘Left Behind: Rise of the Antichrist Depicts Current Day Reality’
Read Time: 1 minute 30 seconds
Do you ever wonder what the world will look like after the rapture? Will people believe that Jesus came back for His bride or will they think it was some alien abduction? “Left Behind: Rise of the Antichrist” is coming to theatres across America to depict what a current-day rapture would look like.
“I love the tagline…it’s a true story that just hasn’t happened yet,” actor and director Kevin Sorbo says in our exclusive interview.
The previous “Left Behind” movie came out eight years ago and starred Nicholas Cage. In the sequel, which comes out on Jan. 26, 2023, the movie ties in with the very real and imminent struggles facing our world today.
“I think it’s perfect for the time we are living in right now. You see the craziness of what governments are doing around the world right now. The fear, the pandemic, the anger, the hate, the cancel-culture and wokeness,” Sorbo says. Jokingly he says, “if the rapture hasn’t already happened it feels like it’s on the way.”
Sorbo’s character goes on a soul search throughout the film trying to understand what is going on. His wife and son were both right with God and they were taken up. “You’ve got people who’ve denied that it happened, they say maybe it was aliens that took millions of people away,” he says.
There will always be people who deny God, what He’s doing, and when He returns. Sorbo and the cast are praying that when people go and see the movie it will open their hearts to the truth lying behind the fictional storylines.
“We’re trying to fight back and gain the culture of America back because Hollywood is controlling the culture right now and it’s not good. The anger and divisiveness they put out there are on purpose and we’ve got a battle on our hands,” he says.
Spread the word with your family and friends that the movie is coming out and head out to one of the 1,500 theatres it will be airing in on Jan. 26. For more information you can go to www.LeftBehindMovie.com {eoa}
