Just in case you thought Hollywood was running out of stories to adapt for TV and movies, Fox is going back further than you might expect. The upcoming series, The Faithful, aims to adapt multiple stories from the Bible that focus on women for a limited series in 2026. The Faithful release date comes in time for Easter 2026, with Minnie Driver in one of the starring roles.
The Faithful is a three-part limited series based on five Old Testament women – Sarah, Hagar, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel. Their stories are intertwined and, more importantly, they are some of the most prominent female figures in the Old Testament of the Bible. The Faithful release date is March 22, 2026 at 8 pm ET.
The three-part series will air a new episode each Sunday until April 5, 2026. That means that the final episode of The Faithful will air on Fox on Easter Sunday, while each episode will air on Hulu the day after. While there aren’t many episodes in The Faithful, each one is expected to be two hours long, which still makes it a sizable chunk of television. That schedule means that The Faithful will air on Fox throughout the Passover and Easter seasons.
Those who tune into The Faithful will see stories from Genesis that focus on “discovering and losing love, the challenges of marriage, the joys and heartbreak of children, confronting temptation, and finding faith,” according to the official logline from Fox.
The Faithful release date is March 22, 2026, with the series finale airing on April 5, 2026, which also happens to be Easter Day.
