Judas wasn’t evil, he’s the epitome of those who like the idea of Jesus, but they never really get who Jesus really is. They want the benefits but not the cross. Those who remain in the world even after an encounter with Jesus. Judas tried to keep on foot in the world, never totally sold out to Jesus. He never repented of what he did he felt guilt and regret but not repentance.

I think he was afraid just like most people and wasn't ready to die for Jesus like some of the other disciples were an did but that is also why the Bible is so credible as well because people died for the testimony of Jesus Christ ...most would have lied or denied our Lord to save their skin just like Judas did.

I think we already saw a hint of the show's angle of how Judas' betrayal will be portrayed: In the scene talking to his mentor, Judas hates having deceived the land owner. But the moment his mentor gives him some cash and time off, his demeanor changes. I've seen this happen a lot in politics, and I have been just as guilty: In exchange for some food, a party, or a $600 stimulus check, people give certain politicians their vote. They then get angry that these politicians are nothing but crooks and in it for themselves. Just imagine all the Blessings we deny ourselves by not having 100% faith in the power of The Creator of everything.

I really don't think he took it so far...he just didn't know it would have such a huge ripple effect. it was just thirty pieces of silver and if JESUS wanted to defend himself he could have escaped. Fending off the Pharisees was nothing new and pilate gave him so many opportunities to save himself but he chose not to. Speaks to JESUS' resolve to lay down his life...I'm not justifying what he did but I believe like many of us, Judas was simply very shortsighted and didn't see his betrayal leading to such greivous consequences especially when he had a front seat to some of JESUS' most volatile confrontations and seeing how he skirted all of them. He rationalised that it was not a big deal.

Judas served as a cautionary tale for everyone, and Luke being excited by having the opportunity to portray the Chosen’s take on Judas’ life leading up to his ultimate betrayal (in my opinion) does good work for the Kingdom by portraying Judas just like all the other Characters in The Chosen: real human beings making real human decisions. While all of us want to be as faithful as Peter and Zealous as Z, we must also look at Judas, someone who walked, talked, ate, and bore personal witness to Jesus Christ yet STILL fell to sin knowing that we could fall in that same trap, that same greed. Jesus didn’t forgive Judas because Judas betrayed Him, or else we would suffer the same fate. Judas died unforgiven because he fell into self-loathing and committed suicide before he could repent. The last thing we Christians need to do is say that God would never forgive us for what we’ve done. God’s Grace and Mercy is infinite, and we must acknowledge that even though we don’t deserve forgiveness, it’s always there. All we have to do is humble ourselves and ask.

I mean, the way they introduced Judas is something special. It was never done this way, nobody even thought about bringing out that human element of Judas. I remember when we saw the scene with the dealer and apprentice for the first time I was like, is that a flashback? Looks like one. Then there was that conversation in the pub where apprentice talks about doing something remembered throughout history and it dawned on me. My wife didn't know even though she was the one who said we didn't see Judas yet just before we started the last episode. So when the big revelation came she was like ooooooooh! And I really enjoyed the little foreshadowing with buying someone's field, such a nice touch. The writing on this show is on the highest level as is all the production and acts.

I'll never understand the villain take on Judas - he's the ironic character. Everyone hates Matthew. He's the tax collector who has a true conversion but still nobody trusts him. But ALL the disciples trust Judas with the money! He was probably the most handsome, most well-liked, the "anti-Matthew" which makes it like Luke is saying, he's a tragedy. He's any of us. We get tempted and can fall away and make a royal mess. It's perfect that Luke is likeable and smiles, he's trustworthy, then like we probably would, he blows it when it counts. Which is sad but it's a lesson for us. He could have gone to Jesus with his doubts but kept up appearances....

He knew he gave money back, he knew he was sorry, he knew he did the worst thing and I feel his "better not born" was because he knew how his history would be remembered. He wants us to be forgiving and ask for it, but as Terese of Avila, I will hope and pray he did later.

I like how The Chosen is like the first show his grandma ever binge watched. That could have been me with this show. I didn't binge watch this show either because many of the episodes are so powerful I wanted to break for a day at the end of every episode and just marinade on what I saw. Watching the whole season at once would be a challenge because the show is so intense. Here with Luke as Judas....I can tell already that this one is going to hurt! The brilliance of this show comes through in all of its elements. Very proud of everyone who's a part of this! 🥰

You can’t know how moved I am by you showing us the humanity of Judas and how great this actor’s portrays Judas. So intriguing to watch this character develop. Judas had to have been loved by many, including all the disciples, and even Jesus even though He knew Judas would betray Him. Such a lesson for us to learn that even of one of Jesus’ disciples could be tempted to that extreme, how can we think we are above or immune to temptation. It makes me so sad to think of all the times I have let Jesus down and yet there is always forgiveness and redemption. Is it possible that in the moments before Judas took his last breath there repentance, forgiveness and redemption? And I wonder if that will be part of the story you tell. Thank you again for this series.

So, I feel better now that some of the background was discussed. And, yes, I can see that Luke Dimyan is a good choice even though it breaks my heart.

I used to wonder about this, too. How could he walk so closely with Jesus (in person!) for years and be so lost? I thought I was a believer for most of my life… from 10-15 years old, and until I was 36…until one moment when the word of God pierced my heart and I understood my wickedness compared to God’s holiness and for the first time, understood repentance. My heart was changed in that moment. Looking at Judas in that context, I finally realized, “he didn’t know he didn’t believe. He didn’t know he didn’t understand. He never really knew who Jesus was. He struggled and probably didn’t even know *why* he couldn’t “do it right”.” I thought I was a lousy Christian for decades- that it was hard, and painful, and confusing. No matter how much I wanted to follow Jesus- I didn’t know how. Of course, now I know I was doing it without the Spirit of God in me to guide me. The life of Judas shows me how closely you can follow Jesus and still be so. very. lost. *I* was Judas. And I am grateful that Jesus opened my eyes to Who He Is before it was too late for me and for my children. I can’t wait to see Luke play this role and make us have love and compassion for Judas. I hope it makes all of us more compassionate toward people who are difficult to love or who have done things that are hard to forgive. Judas was born to do what he did. God used him to get Jesus to the cross. Had he not betrayed Jesus, God would have made another way, but it’s sort of striking to consider that Judas is someone the world loves to hate, but our redemption is due, in part, to his betrayal of Jesus. Of all the wicked things that happen in the world- we ask “why?!! Why did this have to happen?” In this case, it was for us. That just occurred to me, and it makes me even more sad for the real Judas… because there could have been redemption for him. There could have been forgiveness for his betrayal, just like there is for ours. But it was not to be. I find that humbling. Make us love him, Luke! Can’t wait!

Luke is bringing the humanity of Judas to the character. He has an insight into his motivation that hasn’t been revealed before. I’m excited to see how it all comes together.

I always looked at Judas differently growing up. I always wondered if he was truly the “bad guy” we’re told he was. I always wondered about his fate. And then a priest said to me once “Judas died before Christ did, and he still had an opportunity for redemption once Christ died.” He shared my hopefulness that he was able to repent and that’s how I see Judas, a foolish man who regretted his actions, committed suicide, and was given an opportunity post death to be redeemed when his Rabbi died for his sins.

They make you want him to join the team and come to know Jesus personally. They make you think just a little in the back of your mind “No, no way, he won’t betray Jesus” even though you know he will.

I love how 2 Franciscan Friars were reviewing The Chosen, and LOVED how Judas was handsome and normal and not the ugly caricatures that help people hate someone, devilish looks, huge hook nose etc. i look forward to his performance.

As a person AND actor, on a PAR with Jonathan, this guy is SO real and lovable. Up there with Roumie as my favorite person on the show. Oh, and God bless his Grandma!

I hope he knows that when we found out who he was a lot of us were like. Emotionally devastated.

Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻 Stay blessed 🌻

I love this actor!! Genuinely so himself!! Nothing is staged with this group! Such a different bts than the very STAGED actors we all know. I’m an actress and this is so amazing to see. I gave it up when my faith was restored but Dallas has really changed up the future of this industry!! I could cry! Thank you God, Ahayah, for giving us a fresh up to date view into your only begotten son , Yeshayah or Jesus Christ! We are so blessed! Amen!!

Can't wait to see how this character is developed. 🙌

Today, I’ve been catching up on info-vids that i missed over the last year or so. I just watched this one. Luke, i know it’s been over a year since this interview, but i wanted to let you know that you are portraying Judas beautifully! One of my favorite scenes of yours is in season 3, when all the disciples are around the table with Jesus @ Simon’s house. When Z finds out that Matthew was a tax collector, his wasn’t the only great performance. Your facial expression was perfect as you ‘realized’ that a zealot and a tax collector were going to be traveling together. Alone. It made me laugh! Thank you for your part in this incredible show. You’re truly doing a great job.

This my absolute favorite interview. I’ve watched it multiple times. He’s such a geek! 🥰🤓

Dallas, you end this interview with, "Let's hope you don't screw this up." Harsh. Have mercy on this lovable young actor.😂💖

Own that nerdiness! You're amazing, Luke, and I love your portrayal of Judas so far. I love the idealism you bring and the subtle way you handled the moral gray that led to Judas being the accursed one. Bless you and your role!

I love this interview and how this show has brought so many actors together in a way only God could do💕💕💕🐝

I love how he says he's always thought of Judas. I've always pondered what Judas must have truly been like. I to don't believe he started out with thoughts of betrayal. Even though ultimately he did. And as Christ said it would have been better had he not been born

You know what’s so crazy and awful and wonderfully beautiful? We all could have ended up like Judas……”by grace you’ve been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.”Ephesians 2:8 To understand this brings life in Him.

My family just recently watched both seasons for the first time (we are late to the game lol). We were very interested who was going to play Judas and how he would be introduced. My husband is a minister and he was happy that he looks just all the other guys. Just your normal guy, nothing scary or suspicious about him. Jesus knew what he would ultimately do, but no one else had a clue. Even during the last supper, they didn't know who would betray Jesus. Looking forward to future seasons and how everything plays out!

This is the interview that made me really excited to see Luke in more episodes. ❤️

This is a great interview; as a Catholic Christian we love this show and ALL its characters; Dallas is doing a great job in bringing The Word to this broken world and the depth and focus he's taken in detailing not only the life and mission of Christ but his disciples has never been done before on screen; I've seen probably every film ever made on the Life of Christ and Dallas has topped them all bar none.........the late Bishop Fulton Sheen talked at length in a interview about both Judas and Peter because actually they BOTH betrayed Christ..........but...........Peter repented unto the Lord before his death on the cross and eventually gave strength to his fellow disciples after the Resurrection............Judas on the other hand lost his place forever by repenting only unto himself and by committing suicide unfortunately gave away his only chance for peace and salvation..........I've been very lucky that even though at times I've been both a Judas and Peter to some degree but through the grace of God have always been called back into his Love; so thanks again Dallas for a awesome portrayal of the Life of Christ for us all.

Every interview I see your castmates say how great, hilarious and fun you are They all really love you...❤

So much to say here!! I was so glad to hear his grace toward the real Judas. He knows that he, just like all of us, was human. His humility because of his ~own~ relationship with Christ is what is enabling him to play this role. And why God chose him to do so!

You had me at “Mangas and Light Saber collection!” Love it! Such a great actor! I’m so glad God chose you for this role!

Sometimes when you watch actor interviews, you are disappointed by the actors. Not so with the chosen. All the actors are such delightful people that I would love to be friends with.

This makes me reflect on the fact that Jesus did know that Judas would betray him, to fulfill the Scriptures. But the message, I think, that we are to ponder is that Jesus, even to the end was offering Judas a way out, to resist temptation. But in the end, of course, Judas chose betrayal. And that decision was not a snap decision, but Judas obviously was headed toward this momentous act of betrayal by a series of wrong choices. It is a warning to all of us that our choices lead to a result and that Satan is lying in wait to destroy us, any way he can. I would expect that the writers have crafted this character to communicate this warning, pertinent and applicable to us all.

And told him to go and do it quickly at Passover. Who would not if his mind was on Jesus overthrowing the Romans, not think Jesus was telling him it was okay?

This is such a great interview. Can't wait for 3 to come out. This is a beautiful well written show.I love it.❤💜🕊💜🕊❤

He won’t screw it up! He will do great because the show is great and he is great! Prayers for all of you and your families

Played Judas for a few years in the Zion Passion Play (1990's) which is my favorite and most rewarding role. Love what the Chosen is doing with this character.

I’m so looking forward to how his character is built through the next several seasons. He is so cute and loveable. *squeal* I can’t wait! We know you’ll do it justice. Congratulations on the roll. You’ll be the guy everybody loves to hate!

Or hates that they can't help but love?! 😉

I so miss seeing new episodes of the chosen …so ready for the new season love you guys !

I absolutely love this actor. He's already got me humanizing Judas.

I love the approach they take about these topics.

Truly the perfect person for this role. I love how 'Judas' is Coptic Orthodox, they have the BEST explanations for everything Christianity and I learned more from/filled so many holes from Catholic school with their videos! Judas having a gun collection behind him during audition, that's just too perfect lol.

"Let faith have its purpose." 🧡

This man named Luke, has the type of eyes that always make me melt, sigh.

Impressive young man, great interview.

This is one year ago but I love hearing this kind of conversation. Luke is such an in depth person. He's like the goofy one but mahn, just by listening to him you'll know he's a great guy.

I love that this program takes you into a deeper dimension of the characters that are involved 16:09

Tbf, I think Judas NEVER imagined that the consequences of his actions would result in Christs death. He probably didn't think Jesus COULD die! He was a bit of a zealot and possibly thought his actions would cause Christ to become quicker, and they did in a way and the only difference between him and Peter was that Peter repented! 🤷‍♀️ and remember Christ couldn't have done what he did for us, without him! I am so glad he was introduced as a decent and humble guy! ❤ Go Judas ( can you say that? 😂)

Do read the Charles Wright poem":St.Judas." He is ready to kill himself, and sees a man being beaten to death--Judas is doomed--but he runs to help--and ignores the soldiers"....".Flayed without hope,I held the man for nothing in my arms."--Powerful poem remembered since grad school....!!!!!!!!!!

Gripping Interview!! Dallas my late pastor had REMARKABLE insight into Judas, so I will share. He believed Judas was trying to manipulate Jesus into fighting the government to become a literal king in that day. He loved Him deeply, but got antsy and thought He just needed a little 'push' to make it happen. Maybe that thought came from satan? But Judas did not believe Jesus would actually be taken and killed, but instead would reveal His divine nature and rule. My pastor also believed Judas was murdered, as no one can suicide to the point of splitting themselves open with a knife and their guts spilling out while they are hanging. My pastor hopes Judas repented and tells us to not be surprised or offended if he's in heaven when we get there. Fun to wonder... 🍿

Hi I would be curious to know what Book, Chapter and verse that was stated in the Bible! God bless you and your loved ones in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ!

There had to be a Judas in order to have a Calvary, and there had to be a Calvary to have a resurrection!

Jesus selected all his disciples for rhe Lord's reasons. Judas seems to have been selected to fulfill the prophesy and to fulfill the incarnation. An unimaginable burden ...

love his eyes! Got drawn to them and i am so much aware of his role. would love to know how he delivers in the next episodes.

Looking forward to the development of his character! God bless you all!

The way you introduced Judas totally fooled me, I had zero suspicion that character was Judas. LOL We were shown what a good kid this guy was. I really liked this character. The shock when he's introduced as Judas was huge! We get to see that Judas isn't a one sided bad guy who does bad things because he's bad. He's shown as being really normal, not much different than any of us in fact. That's frightening to think about.

Amazing interview! Can’t wait to see what happened next with Judas! Luke you doing a fantastic job, keep it mr! 👏🏻👏🏻💜💜

I just saw Jesus Christ Superstar and when they had Judas cry, I lost it. If you've never had or known anyone who committed suicide you can't understand the blackness. Christ said forgive them, they know not what they do. That included Judas, he really didn't understand until Jesus walked away and didn't fight.

When I watched the first season again I also couldn’t stop and watched it into the late night early morning.

This interview made me want to see the next episodes. Like is very apt to do the character 👌
