Catholic Actor Antonio Banderas on New Nativity Musical "Journey to Bethlehem" | EWTN News Nightly

A new movie examines the birth of Christ from a slightly different perspective. 'Journey to Bethlehem' is a live-action Christmas musical. It weaves classical Christmas melodies with humor, faith and even a couple new pop songs. The movie from Affirm Films hit the theaters last weekend. Academy Award nominee and practicing Catholic, Antonio Banderas, plays King Herod in 'Journey to Bethlehem' and joins us to discuss why he wanted to be involved in this movie and what it was like playing the role of the jealous King Herod. The movie combines Biblical stories with new pop music. Banderas shares how the film struck the balance between being respectful but also telling the Christmas story in a slightly different manner. He explains how his Catholic faith helps him on a day-to-day basis. The actor tells us what he hopes people take away from the movie. Banderas fills us in on where people who want more information about the movie can go and where they can go to see the movie.
