No, Jonathan Roumie is not leaving The Chosen after Season 5.

The rumors about Roumie leaving the series first surfaced when various Facebook accounts started sharing such speculations. On November 17, 2024, a profile named Kázàh Chyáñg posted something similar in the Jonathan Roumie official group. In essence, he appeared to impersonate Roumie by using his picture and wrote, “I’ve finally departed from The Chosen for this season; if you want me back for the next one, make it a resounding ‘yes!’

Although there’s been an increasing clamor among fans for the actor’s return in the upcoming season, it’s important to clarify that these calls aren’t based on any truth. In fact, such posts are crafted by users with the intention of boosting interaction and publicity. It’s not just limited to Facebook; YouTube channels also run similar engagement strategies.

A YouTube channel called Nextfilm has produced several videos, most of which share similar titles, speculating about Rumie’s potential departure from The Chosen. Additionally, another channel, Next Show, published an in-depth video discussing the factors leading to the actor’s exit.

Fortunately, there’s no reason for fans to worry about losing Jonathan Roumie from their favorite show. He has actually confirmed that he will continue as a cast member for the next two seasons. During a live stream on Instagram, he shared his enthusiasm for Season 6.

He expressed his anticipation not for the procedure itself, but for the chance to explore a small aspect of our Lord’s Suffering in a carefully managed manner. His aim is to present this experience in a way that could potentially strengthen people’s connection with the Crucifixion, Jesus, and perhaps spark a deeper relationship with Jesus.

The Chosen Season 5 Part One will premiere in the theatres on March 28, 2025.
