Breitbart Reports: Nearly 20 years after The Passion of the Christ broke box office records, this report says shooting of the sequel, which will again star Jim Caviezel as Christ, will happen mid-year or late Spring:

I’m hearing Mel Gibson will finally be shooting “The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection” in a few months. A late Spring production is currently being eyed with Jim Caviezel set to return in the role of Jesus.

Gibson has been hard at work on the screenplay with “Braveheart” screenwriter Randall Wallace — there have already been six drafts. ‘Resurrection’ would focus on the twenty-four hours encompassing Jesus’ passion and the events that occurred three days between his crucifixion and resurrection.
