David Trailer Showcases Animated Musical Movie Adaptation of Bible
------------------------------------------------------------------
Angel has shared the official trailer for David, the upcoming
animated musical drama about the Biblical story of the shepherd
boy who became king. The movie is scheduled to arrive in theaters
on December 19, 2025.

"From the songs of his mother's heart to the whispers of a
faithful God, David's story begins in quiet devotion. When the
giant Goliath rises to terrorize a nation, a young shepherd armed
with only a sling, a few stones, and unshakable faith steps
forward," reads the official synopsis. "Pursued by power and driven
by purpose, his journey tests the limits of loyalty, love, and
courage - culminating in a battle not just for a crown, but for the
soul of a kingdom."

What happens in the David trailer?
The video chronicles David's rise from a young shepherd boy who
defeated a giant with a slingshot to fulfilling his destiny of
becoming the people's king. The trailer highlights the obstacles
he'll face against a tyrannical king, who has grown jealous of the
people's love for David. It also offers a preview of some of the
songs that will be featured in the musical movie. It is based on
one of the stories from the Book of Samuel in the Bible's Old
Testament.

"The official trailer captures the excitement and emotion at the
heart of DAVID," Angel executive Brandon Purdie said in a statement.
"The film has already pre-sold millions in tickets, surpassing
Angel's previous pre-sales records, and theater chains across the
country are expressing tremendous excitement. We can't wait to share
this animated musical with audiences nationwide."

The movie is directed by Phil Cunningham and Brent Dawes, with
Dawes, Kyle Portbury, and Sam Wilson co-writing the screenplay. It
will feature the voices of Grammy nominee Phil Wickham, Brandon
Engman (Bull Run), Brian Stivale (The Garden), and Miri Mesika
(Three Mothers). Composer Joseph Trapanese (The Greatest Showman) is
also providing the movie's music.
