This makes me draw closer to Jesus to see his love and experience him relationally. Criticism... This would not have the impact God intended it to have without criticism. That was the reality that Jesus experienced as a man. Thank you for allowing your emptied self for the manifestation of the Lord in our lives. We learn a whole lot more from your personal experiences as you depict heavenly events and personalities. Thank Thank you thank you. Criticism let it come. It makes you real and strong.

To be honest, I felt that Shmuel seemed more of a villain in the latter episodes than Quintus did. In fact Quintus makes you curious about how his mind works, or what leads him to be that way. A brilliant take on his role.👌 Keep it going!

I wonder if Quintus will eventually be the Roman centurion who goes through with sacrificing the Son of God and then declaring “Surely he was the Son of God!” (Matthew 27:54)

Please, make one of these for Gaius! I love him. His tough Roman attitude with the weak spot he has for Matthew is so adorable. While he admires Matthew's intelligence like Quintus does, I think he has a big brother dynamic that makes him genuinely concerned about his well being. He has a certain bond with Matthew's parents because of it that was delightful to watch. The series will have a hard time having "detestable villains" - and that's actually good. It is something that I think the writers should aim for. It's not only that the actors have such good chemistry and the characters are so interesting. I think it's also because a series about Jesus has the unique requirement of showing that every human being is in need of redemption, and that the Lord does want them all redeemed. For example, the Pharisees do have a side that is very good - they want to be faithful to the covenant. The Romans can be ruthless, but they are a reflection of a great Empire that doesn't know much else than might makes right, like Brandon points out here. Quintus may be vicious, but he is lonely just like Matthew is lonely. Matthew found consolation in riches, Quintus in power. Their wound is similar, and it's good that we look at Matthew following Jesus and being slowly healed, and think "I wish Quintus would receive and accept this grace too." It would be good to see even the nastiest characters have at least something that makes the audience look at them and relate. And as a counterpart, it is also good for us to see the most heroic characters fail, and be reminded that their heroism comes from God alone.

Love Quintus! Even though his character is a antagonist, he is so fun to watch and see him interact with whoever he is with in this show. He is so talented and has a magnetic personality, and his facial expressions are so reactionary and full of energy. His time with Matthew is my favorite. While he is demeaning and sees Matthew as a function, it is clear he sees the “something special” in Matthew. I hope we see a lot more of Quintus in S:2. Super talented actor!

@@mizpahshenj5354 “confusingly interesting” is a great way to put it. I just saw seasons 1 and 2 for the first time, after hearing about this show for a long time, and realized I liked this Roman praetor character, Quintus. That sort of surprised me! It’s because Quintus has personality and depth - he’s not your typical, one dimensional bad guy - and he’s played superbly by the actor, Brandon Potter. You know he’s the villain, but you can’t help but like him. I will be disappointed to see him exit the show.

Quintus is not the character I find so distasteful, it's Shmuel! (love the way Nicodemus puts 'Shmuel' in his place when he so needs it) Quintus is power hungry, which we would expect from a Roman. What else does he have to strive for? Shmuel is also power hungry, but he should know better. Nicodemus tries to guide him but Shmuel uses subterfuge to get around him. He is the epitomy of the 'brood of vipers' John the Baptist has so aptly identified. I love the way Quintus baits Nicodemus and his interactions with Matthew are fascinating. Yes, Quintus is a bad guy but so artfully. Shmuel is also a bad guy but abhorrent in his raw jealousy.

His facial features and his voice tone and way of speaking sounds just like him! I know John de Lancie's real son played Q's son also on Star Trek a couple times and I thought Brandon might have been him, until I looked up who plays Quintas. I really enjoy The Chosen!!

Brandon’s voice, mannerisms, and that giggle are pure gold and magnetic in that you want to engage with him more. Listening to Brandon, you get that he has analyzed his character deeply and is completely invested in Quintus. Between his brilliance and his delightful personality, The Chosen absolutely nailed this casting. Bravo to The Chosen and Brandon. Can’t wait to see more.

I love Quintus. I know we are not supposed to like him, but I can't help it. He is clearly competent, intelligent, and ambitious. But what I love most about him is that he appreciates what makes Matthew special. He sees that Matthew has more to him than what others see.

Brandon's performance was immediately startling and mesmerizing. Totally unexpected and fresh. I had never seen anything like it and especially on a bible retelling story. Wishing good things for this guy's career!

What I find fascinating: when I watched the first episode, Quintus immediately reminded me of the Q from Star Trek: The Next Generation. The Q also appears in the very first episode and taunts Captain Picard and sets the pace for the plot, and then later speed the plot forward in another episode. Brandon looks and sound like the Q, and his character's name begins with the letter 'Q' and he kind of taunts Pharisee leader Nicodemus. I immediately thought that there was inspiration taken from the Q from Star Trek. But either way, I love the character.

Quintus was one of my favorite characters!!! Really made me feel the might of Rome.

Really hope to see more of Quintus in season 2. Intelligently played, perfect choice!

Each of The Chosen's main characters' performances were wonderful. I found some to be extra engaging, extra believable. For example, Quintus's expressions, moods, words, surprise and chuckle were all so perfectly timed, so natural, yet within the parameters of one who knows he's in control. Short but fascinating scenes. There are so many scenes in The Chosen where so much more is projected than just the words and actions. The script is AMAZING! And the actors bring life to each scene that, I believe, is blessed by God Almighty. Praying God continues to bless, protect, prosper, guide, and keep all involved with The Chosen in His all-powerful care in Jesus' name.

Quintus played by Brandon is a major highlight of season one and I just loved all of his parts! Thank you Dallas and Brandon!

He isn't just Brandon. He's Quintus himself. I just love the casting from this show❤

One year later and I still can't get over Brandon's great performance, looking forward to seeing Quintus again!

We think he's pretty special too Erik!

The way Brandon plays Quintus makes me want to see and experience Quintus deeper. Like slowing down to see the shock and dismay of a traffic accident. You know he's bad but you have to see more! Good acting.

He is a great bad guy, we agree, Jody! ;)

As a Christian pastor teacher, I am so blessed by this series…I love the imagination and plausibility of the story and focus on the people around the Gospel story. You guys are right on track with this, I am going to support this project. I am now a regional director for Church Owned Bible Translation in Africa. I am encouraging my national pastors in East Africa to watch this. Thank you “Asanta Santa” I am praying for you and this project. I am writing this to share encouragement in spite of the crisism you are receiving. It has really made me think about my perspective as I read through the Gospels. PS: these actors are in the center of their calling and craft!

What a joy to hear from our favorite "bad guy." As Believers, we knew there had to be a tender hearted man behind that mean veneer, but it's good to get to "see" that tenderness behind his eyes and a gentle tone. I think it helps keep the viewers balanced on what's actually being done, and the REAL talent being portrayed. THANK YOU, Quintas, for a magnificent performance and for believing in what you're doing.

QUINTAS QUINTAS QUINTAS!!!! HAVE SOOOO BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE BEHIND THE CURTAINS WHAT THIS GUY IS REALLY LIKE! HES SO PERFECT! THANK YOU DALLAS! LOVE HIM. THANK YOU BRANDON!

Love him. My favorite line of his is, "Oh, I really don't like that man!" and the tone he uses!

I hope that working on The Chosen brings about other opportunities for these actors 😊

Cool interview, his acting as Quintus is so good. We get really scared with him on scene. 😂😁

I loved Brandon from the first scene he appeared in and I even like Quintus because he has that feel of intelligence and personality, sort of like a cat who's enjoying playing with captured mice in every scene he's played! It really makes him a joy to watch even though his character has quite the potential for evil. I hope to see a lot more of Brandon/Quintus in the coming seasons!

Dallas, in the Chosen, you make the scriptures come alive for me. I love it. Thank you.

Brandon’s portrayal of Quintus is superb! We can’t however get over the fact of how much he sounds like John de Lancie - especially in his Star Trek character Q. We love The Chosen and can’t wait for Seasons 2 and 3! This series has been part of our weekly family journey on Friday evenings during Lent this year. Thank you all for doing this! God bless you all!!

I love Brandon’s speaking voice. That’s what makes his acting even more powerful.

Brandon's Quintus looks and sounds like John Delancie's Q from Star Trek: TNG. He bats people around like a cat with toys. And just like those episodes, I cannot stop watching Quintus on screen! Hanging on his every word... Interesting movie influences on the character, too.

Brandon is excellent playing Quintas!! Can't wait for more ! Love the way he says "I really don't like the Man". Great job on so many levels!

When I first saw Quintus, I thought it was the same guy that played Q in the old Star Trek, TNG. Soon as I saw him, though, I realized that wasn't him. He does a superb job though!

I like this guy on the show. His voice is so perfect and his lines. He does his role so well

Brandon does an amazing job playing Quintus. I said to my wife while we were watching an episode for the 3rd time that the high intelligence of the actor playing Quintus was showing through the character. It isn’t surprising to see now that the actor is indeed intelligent.

Brandon is such a talented actor! I really enjoy the layers he puts in Quintus you see his humanity not just a villain so masterfully crafted!

"You always need to bring a little of yourself to the character." I just discussed this with my D&D group last week! If there's not a part of you in the character, you won't feel that connection to the character. You won't feel attached, you won't care about them. On another note, my [unsaved] friend found Quintus's approach to miracles relatable: "I wonder how they pulled that off."

I fell in love with Brandon's character from the moment he stopped Nico on the road.. I loved that line," What lives in the water and yet does not drown?" LOVE IT..

@MTCali 70 - He is a natural in this role!

Quintus is my favorite character. I was so pleased to come across this interview! I did think that possibly the actor playing Quintus was a comedian, by the way he delivered his lines. He didn’t appear a villain to me, but then I grew up in the Deep South where prejudice had to be dealt with every day and reduced to a manageable situation. I likeMatthew because he’s not fearful of Quintus, and Quintus needs that acceptance.

I absolutely love how Quintus has been portrayed. Now that season 2 is out and the big meeting has happened I'm even more impressed. This whole show is just so amazingly done. You can feel God in every part of it. I love it.

One of my favorite Quintus lines is after he hears that Matthew quit to follow Jesus and he goes “.........😤 oh I really don’t like that man” 😂😂😂😂😂 I felt the frustration in that line like Quintus just lost his right hand man

Brandon plays that part so perfectly I was telling people that from the beginning he's just awesome 👍 everybody just is perfect for each partif I ever saw Brandon on the street I would recognize him immediately his voice also is one of a kind I would run up and ask for an autograph and tell him awesome his acting is ! I am definitely a fan 😁

I love how you gave Quintus a sort of machiavelli-esk character, I don't know, something about that makes it so powerful! Good Job Dallas and Brandon! Can't wait for Season Two, I will continue telling everyone I know and praying God would just explode this to get His Gospel out there. So creative!

I love that you are digging deeply into the phycology of these characters .. we’ve never dissected them like this.. it explains so much.. So thankful that God knows the workings of our hearts.. this is fascinating!!

He's one of my favorite actors. He's so legit, so natural and just flawless in his acting. He was really able to portray the role as perfectly as it should be. Dallas made the right choice of him to play Quintus. I love you Quintus, lol....I'm a fan.

Quintus is one of our favorites-- i love how you didn't just make the Romans one dimensional- but that there are parts of them that we like and make us laugh--

Rewatching Season 1 for the fourth time! The actors, the story, the music, everything is just so well done! I can't get enough of it and can't wait for Season 2 and beyond!

Quintis is probably my favorite character! He shows efficiency, ambition, cruelty, arrogance, and yet some humanity. He stands out. GREAT Job, Brandon! You need to show one of these clips on IMDB! (One line in S1 about people not fearing soldiers on horses because they haven't seen anyone trampled to death stands out in my mind.)

Absolutely brilliant casting!! He does a phenomenal job playing his part and his voice is an added bonus. Brilliant actor and love how his desire for power and advancement and how he uses people to achieve his goals. Great interaction between him and Matthew. Indeed a villain you love and hate. Great interview with him.

He has the most wonderful voice. I love voices and his really stands out.

I'm obsessed with this chosen content! I would love to see more cast interviews. everyone they've shown so far seems so positive and joyful and just such wonderful people. God truly picked the perfect people for it ☺️

This must not become your idol! Love, Dominic

I really love the way he portraits not just Quintus but a roman well done sir well done

Love Love love this character & how Brandon portrays him. The casting on this entire show is not only spot on, but so deep & complicated. It's another reason there are 56 million views & 7 million app downloads

All are so perfectly cast!! Quintus is right on target. Awesome acting!! Brandon knocks it out of the ‘Roman’ hierarchy park!! Ty! God Bless!

He plays this role so well! I love the scene where he's like (to Matthew and Gaius): how long were you going to stand there? I think its from episode 6?

I have really enjoyed the whole of the 1st season. I watched a video on one of the second season sets at the pool. I am totally amazed at how your actors manage to keep such an amazing atmosphere in their character when there is so much, what looks like chaos, going on around them. They are truly amazing actors. Praying God will continue to bless your efforts

Love your format of the chosen! Two things come to mind; 1) I have the "Laughing Jesus" picture hanging in my home. People always ask me - did Jesus laugh? How could he not , I'd reply. Portraying Jesus with humility really connects his purpose. 2) Brandon plays his role brilliantly, but every time he talks he reminds me of "Q"( John de Lancie) from Star Trek.......... LOL it works for me. Dallas you are the Caravaggio of directors. Thank you.
