Grammy-Award winner Chris Tomlin is making his first foray into theatrical filmmaking, bringing his unparalleled reputation and authenticity in Christian music to the big screen with “The Last Supper.”

In addition to his Executive Producer role Tomlin has recorded a song for the film, “No Greater Love,” that will appear in the last scene into closing credits. Tomlin wrote the song recently with Tyler Hubbard, Corey Crowder, and Matt Jenkins. “No Greater Love” is available now across all digital platforms. The Pinnacle Peak Pictures film is produced by Michael Scott and directed by Mauro Borrelli.

“When I was approached by “The Last Supper” team about contributing to this film, God immediately put a song on my heart I had written a few weeks prior with my friends Corey Crowder, Matt Jenkins, and Tyler Hubbard,” shared Tomlin. “John 15:13 says, “Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for one’s friends.” That is the essence of this song, the foundation of this movie, and a cornerstone of our faith.”

Tomlin’s participation in the film follows tremendous achievements in 2024 including a recording breaking tour and the global success of the song “Holy Forever.” He recently announced a first-of-its-kind concert series taking place this year “Worship Under The Stars” inviting people to a breathtaking celebration of faith, worship, and the vast beauty of creation at hand-selected, spectacular outdoor venues – including Central Park in New York City, Red Rocks in Colorado, and Pier Six Pavilion in Baltimore!

THE LAST SUPPER is an awe-inspiring depiction of the ultimate act of divine love and sacrifice, told through the eyes of those who walked alongside Jesus Christ. This deeply intimate film unveils untold perspectives, shedding new light on the profound Biblical truths that shaped salvation history. More than a retelling, it is an invitation to experience redemption, grace, and the eternal promise of hope like never before.

“I have always said that worship is more about seeing than singing and years ago, I was leading worship in Israel and that understanding was deeply reinforced. While standing in the place and seeing where Jesus gave His life, I was profoundly moved, reflecting on His final moments on Earth. That experience was a marking moment in my life,” shared Tomlin. “In watching THE LAST SUPPER film, I have had that same spiritual encounter. My prayer is that this film will meet people where they are and make a deep and eternal impact on their lives.”

When asked about the visual element, he says, “I wanted to go in a different direction visually for this one. It’s been years since I’ve shot a concept video and I welcome the change.
