Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Gospel of John is a 2003 film dramatization of the life of Jesus as found in The Bible. It stars Henry Ian Cusick as Jesus and is narrated by Christopher Plummer.The film is strictly based on just one of The Four Gospels, namely the Gospel of John. The events, structure, dialogue and narration are taken virtually word-for-word from John using the Good News Bible translation. No part of the text is skipped, unlike other Jesus films such as The Greatest Story Ever Told, King of Kings and Son of God which combine, condense and expand upon the accounts in the Gospels. As a result, it's three hours long.Produced by Visual Bible International, which also released the similarly word-for-word The Visual Bible: Matthew and The Visual Bible: Acts in the 1990s, using a different cast and Bible translation.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })See also Jesus, a 1979 film based word-for-word on the Gospel of Luke, which also uses the Good News Bible translation.

Adapted Out: Anything relating to Jesus that isn't in the Gospel of John, though it may be in the other three Gospels or elsewhere in the Bible, isn't shown. This includes key elements like the virgin birth of Jesus, and the offering of bread and wine during the Last Supper (aka the sacrament of the Eucharist or Holy Communion).

Ascended Extra: The film has Mary Magdalene sit at table at the Last Supper and accompany Jesus and the Twelve apostles to the garden where he is arrested. The Gospel doesn't mention if Mary was there or not, and traditionally only men were present. This has theological/religious implications, as the Last Supper is understood to be the root of the modern Christian Mass, officiated by priests or ministers. Some Christian churches allow women in these roles, while some allow only men.
