"Jesus Revolution" Surpasses $50M at the Box Office & Is Available Digitally Today

Faith-based movie Jesus Revolution has grossed over $50 million at the box office and is available on digital today. Film creators announced that Jesus Revolution will be available on DVD / Blu-ray on April 25. This will be a special feature that will include audio commentary with Jon Erwin, Brent McCorkle, and Kevin Downes, and some behind-the-scenes videos.
The film telling the true story of the revival on the West Coast in the late 1970s was released into theaters on Feb. 24 and has grossed $51,773,669 after grossing more than $15 million on its opening weekend, according to Box Office Mojo. Co-director Jon Erwin noted that it's "an unbelievable landmark for any movie."
The film is based on a true story of noted pastor Greg Laurie's encounter with a "hippie-street-preacher" named Lonnie Frisbee in the 1970s, which led to a collaboration with Pastor Chuck Smith in the transformation of his "languishing church" into "an unexpected revival of a radical and newfound love."
The film features Joel Courtney as a young Laurie, Jonathan Roumie as Frisbee and Kelsey Grammer of "Cheers" and "Frasier" fame as Smith. The title refers to Time Magazine's description of the revival as a "Jesus Revolution."
