Wonder Project has shared the official trailer for The Old Stories: Moses, a companion special from the world of the hit biblical drama series House of David. The three-part show will premiere on Wonder Project’s subscription on Prime Video in the U.S. sometime this spring. Afterward, it will then debut globally on Prime Video at a later date.
“It is a three-part companion special that opens a window into the narratives that shaped Israel long before David took the throne. As the past unfolds with epic force, a young shepherd sees his own future reflected in the courage, failure, and obedience of those who came before him,” reads the official synopsis.
