They found him. The stunt-double for the glowing-eyed Jesus of a billion American refrigerator magnets. He was living in Portugal. Once that guy’s been found, you simply have to make a Jesus movie entitled “Son of God.” And so they did. Or maybe it was the other way around. Either way, it was a fabulous casting coup look-wise—Diogo Morgado is definitely deserving of the Oscar for best-looking Jesus, ever.
