The Carpenter's Son 2025

The Carpenter's Son is a 2025 supernatural thriller/biblical horror film directed by Lotfy Nathan, who also wrote the screenplay. It reimagines the teenage years of Jesus Christ, referred to as "The Boy" (played by Noah Jupe), and is loosely inspired by the apocryphal Infancy Gospel of Thomas. The film stars Nicolas Cage as The Carpenter (Joseph) and FKA Twigs as The Mother (Mary). The plot follows the family—The Carpenter, The Mother, and The Boy—living in hiding in a remote village in Roman-era Egypt, constantly moving to avoid persecution after The Boy's extraordinary powers begin to surface. The Carpenter, a devout man, struggles to protect his family and clings to his faith, while The Boy grapples with his emerging divine and mysterious abilities. The central conflict intensifies when a mysterious figure called "The Stranger" (Isla Johnston), a personification of Satan, arrives and attempts to tempt The Boy, trying to lure him away from his father's devout path and toward vengeful impulses. This dynamic turns the story into a coming-of-age narrative centered on a troubled teen discovering his true potential and destiny under immense pressure and supernatural threat. The film's U.S. theatrical release date was November 14, 2025, with a runtime of 94 minutes. Read More
