Ben Kingsley is stepping into one of history’s most recognizable roles in The Old Stories: Moses, a new three-part special that has now released its first trailer and locked in a spring 2026 debut window in the United States. The project will premiere through Wonder Project’s subscription on Prime Video, with a broader global rollout on Prime Video scheduled for a later date.
The trailer positions the special as a large-scale retelling of Moses’ story, with O-T Fagbenle cast opposite Kingsley as Pharaoh. Rather than being introduced as a standalone title with no context, the project is being framed as a companion special set in the world of House of David, giving it a clearer place in Wonder Project’s growing slate of biblical dramas.
Current reporting also identifies Louis Ferreira, Anna Khaja, and Rada Rae among the supporting cast. In the trailer, the emphasis is on confrontation, scale, and the personal weight of Moses’ mission, with the footage leaning into the tension between Moses and Pharaoh rather than trying to explain the entire story up front.
What has been confirmed so far is fairly straightforward. The Old Stories: Moses is a three-part special, its first trailer is now public, and its initial U.S. release is set for this spring. What has not been announced is a specific premiere date, so any article that treats the release as fully dated would be overstating what is currently known.
That makes the trailer the real headline. It is the first concrete look at how Wonder Project wants this story to land with viewers: not as a small devotional release, but as a prestige-style biblical drama built around Kingsley’s presence and a familiar, high-stakes story. Whether that turns into a major breakout is still unknown, but the project has now moved from announcement mode into an actual launch campaign.
For now, the key takeaway is simple: Ben Kingsley’s Moses project is real, the first trailer is out, and the series is on the calendar for spring 2026 in the U.S. That is enough to put it firmly on the radar for viewers interested in faith-based dramas, historical epics, or Kingsley’s next major television role.
