History said its high-profile five-part, 10-hour docudrama "The Bible," from executive producer Mark Burnett, will debut March 3, Deadline.com reports.

The show, which is also executive produced by Burnett’s wife, Roma Downey, who plays Mary, combines CGI and live action to portray the events of the Bible, the piece notes. Burnett has been working on the project for two years.

The cast also includes Sean Teale of "Skins" and David Rintoul of "My Week With Marilyn." Portuguese actor Diogo Morgado will play Jesus.

  1. Will this be the History Channel version of the Bible with space aliens, Yeti’s and conspiracy theorists?

  2. Know who the directors and producers are, my bet is on no aliens or yetis.

  3. All I took away from this is…Jesus is SEXY!
