Mel Gibson‘s Oscar-nominated biblical movie is making its way out of Netflix’s library later next month. Released in 2004, the R-rated period drama became the highest-grossing independent movie of all time—a title it still boasts.

The Passion of the Christ is leaving Netflix in March

The Passion of the Christ will be delisted from Netflix on Saturday, March 28, 2026.

Mel Gibson directed the movie from a script he co-wrote with Benedict Fitzgerald. It portrays the final 12 hours leading to Jesus Christ’s death. The cast features Jim Caviezel as Jesus, Maia Morgenstern as Mary, Christo Jivkov as John, Francesco De Vito as Peter, Monica Bellucci as Mary, and Mattia Sbragia as Caiaphas, among others, in prominent roles.

The movie had become a controversial subject even before its theatrical release. Due to major anti-semitism allegations from the Jewish community, several Hollywood production companies had refused to produce it. Gibson later decided to fund it independently through his production company, Icon Productions, and distributed it with the help of Newmarket Films.

The controversies continued even after the movie’s release, which opened to mixed-to-negative reviews from critics. It currently has 49% critic approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences, however, gave it a warmer welcome, and it currently holds a strong 81% Popcornmeter score from over 250,000 user ratings.

Furthermore, the movie became a box office success, concluding its theatrical run with global earnings of over $609 million. As of 2026, The Passion of the Christ remains the highest-grossing independent film of all time. Later, it earned three Academy Award nominations for Best Achievement in Cinematography, Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures, Original Score, and Best Achievement in Makeup.

In early 2025, Gibson revealed that a second part, titled Resurrection of the Christ, is in development during his appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience. At the time, he also said his team aimed for a 2026 release.

However, in August 2025, it was announced that it will be released in two parts. Part One will debut on Good Friday, March 26, 2027, and Part Two on Ascension Day, Thursday, May 6, 2027.
