Summary It has been 18 years since Oscar Isaac landed his first major role as Joseph in the 2006 biblical drama The Nativity Story – now he is set to voice Jesus himself in the upcoming animated film, The King of Kings. The movie will depict the life of Christ as retold through the narration of Charles Dickens. It is inspired by a story published after the author's death, and will be produced by South Korean animation house, Mofac Animation.

It was, however, a break-out role for Oscar Isaac, whose portrayal of the biblical figure earned him his very first credit in a feature film. The Nativity Story emphasizes the humility of Joseph, the carpenter tasked with raising the Son of God. For Isaac, who was raised Christian, it was important to stress Joseph's humanity. He even conducted his own research to help him develop his fresh-faced, vulnerable take on the character, reading from biblical history texts.
Isaac's performance will be boosted by the gorgeous visuals provided by the animation team behind The King of Kings.
