Prime Video has released the official trailer for its upcoming series House of David, an ambitious biblical drama chronicling the rise of David, the shepherd boy who would become Israel’s legendary king. Take a look above.

Set against the backdrop of ancient Israel, the series explores the downfall of King Saul (Ali Suliman, Jack Ryan), whose pride leads to his demise, and the emergence of David (newcomer Michael Iskander) as the chosen leader. As the young outcast grapples with his destiny, he must navigate a world of political turmoil, personal loss, and violent battles—including an encounter with the towering warrior Goliath (Martyn Ford, Mortal Kombat 2).

The show’s ensemble cast includes Ayelet Zurer (Man of Steel) as Queen Ahinoam, Stephen Lang (Avatar franchise) as the prophet Samuel, and Indy Lewis (Industry) and Yali Topol Margalith (Tattooist of Auschwitz) as Saul’s daughters, Mychal and Mirab. Ethan Kai (Carnival Row 2) plays Jonathan, Saul’s son and heir, while Oded Fehr (Star Trek) portrays Abner, a key royal advisor. The series also features Sam Otto (Snowpiercer), Louis Ferreira (Shogun), and Ashraf Barhom (Tyrant).

Developed by Jon Erwin (Jesus Revolution) and Jon Gunn (Ordinary Angels), House of David is produced by Amazon MGM Studios, Lionsgate Television, and Wonder Project. Dallas Jenkins (The Chosen) serves as a special advisor.

House of David premieres on Prime Video on 27 February 2025, launching with three episodes before rolling out weekly.
