"Mr. Feisty himself will be voicing God in a new, 52-episode-long Fox News podcast that will guide "listeners through the life and teachings of Christ." It's a dream part for an actor who loves to say how he feels about stuff with the utmost authority ... except he already landed it. The podcast also features Kristen Bell as Mary Magdalene; she says her recording was for an audiobook from 15 years ago."
"A rep for John Rhys-Davies, who is purportedly narrating the show, said that the actor also only learned of the podcast role this week. In 2021, Cox referred to Fox News as "the devil," which suggests that he may not have been up for the adaptation. For those who don't want to wait for the podcast (or would rather not engage with Fox News at all), the original audiobook that all these stars lent their voices to is simply available at the time of writing."
Brian Cox is set to voice God in a 52-episode Fox News podcast that will guide listeners through the life and teachings of Christ. Kristen Bell is credited as Mary Magdalene, but her voice comes from a 15-year-old audiobook recording that her representatives say was repurposed without permission. A representative for John Rhys-Davies said he only recently learned about a purported narration role. Cox previously called Fox News "the devil" in 2021, raising questions about his participation. Cox representatives have not responded to requests for comment. The original audiobook remains available.
