Martin Scorsese Partners With Fox Nation for New Docudrama ‘Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints’


Martin Scorsese is partnering with Fox Nation for an eight-part docudrama series, "Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints."

Each episode focuses on a singular saint, including Joan of Arc, Francis of Assisi, John the Baptist, Thomas Becket, Mary Magdalene, Moses the Black, Sebastian and Maximillian Kolbe. “I’ve lived with the stories of the saints for most of my life, thinking about their words and actions, imagining the worlds they inhabited, the choices they faced, the examples they set,” Scorsese said in a statement. “These are stories of eight very different men and women, each of them living through vastly different periods of history and struggling to follow the way of love revealed to them and to us by Jesus’ words in the gospels.
