“The Chosen,” the groundbreaking faith-based series depicting the life of Jesus through the eyes of those who knew Him, has once again rewritten history by breaking its Guinness World Record for the most-translated streaming series in history. The announcement was made in Charlotte, North Carolina, where the achievement was formally recognized, as the series became available in 125 languages, surpassing even major global shows in localization reach.

Created and directed by Dallas Jenkins, “The Chosen” has captured the hearts of viewers around the world with its authentic portrayal—blending historical drama with deep spiritual insight that invites audiences into a personal encounter with Christ. This record-breaking milestone reflects the dedication of the Come and See Foundation and a global team of translators, theologians, pastors and linguists whose work ensures that the series can be accessed in languages from Arabic and Hindi to Korean and Vietnamese—with many more translations in progress.

More than 280 million people in over 175 countries have streamed the show, and the foundation’s long-term vision is to make all seven seasons accessible in 600 languages, reaching an estimated 95% of the world’s population and ultimately inspiring 1 billion viewers with the story of Jesus.

Supporters and fans worldwide celebrated the record at ChosenCon 2026, an event marking the series’ cultural impact and growing community of believers united by faith and storytelling. The translation effort, funded largely through donations and prayer, underlines a shared mission: that the Gospel should be heard, understood and received in every tongue and nation.

For audiences seeking the historic drama, “The Chosen” remains available for free through its dedicated app and continues to expand its spiritual reach across the globe.
