Martin Scorsese has always been captivated by the concept of sainthood, reflecting an enduring interest in how these figures embody virtue and holiness, notably since his childhood visits to St. Patrick's Cathedral.
The new series, hosted by Scorsese and released on Fox Nation, dramatizes the lives of eight Catholic saints, emphasizing their moral struggles and virtues and thereby creating a deep narrative connection to faith.
In an interview, Scorsese stated that faith-based entertainment urgently requires depth, arguing that storytelling is pivotal in genuinely understanding the complexities of belief and morality.
The project, featuring both well-known and obscure saints, is a reflection of Scorsese's desire to explore the darker and brighter aspects of moral codes through the lens of historical figures.
