The Wonder Project is an American independent film and television studio in partnership with Amazon MGM Studios specializing in the production of Christian-themed entertainment.[1]
History
[edit ]The Wonder Project was founded in 2021 by director-producer Jon Erwin. In 2023, former YouTube and Netflix executive Kelly Merryman Hoogstraten joined as CEO.[2] It received 75ドル million in seed funding from investors including Lionsgate, Jason Blum, United Talent Agency, and others. Dallas Jenkins was brought on board as a special adviser.
The company's first major production was House of David , a biblical drama about the life of David produced for Amazon Prime Video. The deal was announced in early 2024 and the series premiered in February 2025.[3] The series was well-received and soared to the top of Amazon's viewership charts, prompting Amazon to renew it for a second of three planned seasons.[4]
In 2025, the company announced a deal to create a Wonder Project subscription service as an add-on to Amazon Prime Video which will allow early access to Wonder Project productions as well as hundreds of classic titles.[5] [6] The service launched on October 5, 2025, with exclusive access to season 2 of House of David before it was rolled out to all Amazon Prime subscribers. It attracted 500,000 subscribers in its first three weeks.[7]
A theatrical film entitled Sarah's Oil was released on November 7, 2025, via Amazon MGM Studios. Projects in development include The Breadwinner , starring Nate Bargatze; a drama series called It's Not Like That starring Scott Foley and Erinn Hayes in partnership with Amazon MGM Studios; Young Washington , a feature film produced with Angel Studios about the early life of George Washington; Flyer, a film about the Wright brothers;[8] [9] and The Old Stories: Moses, starring Ben Kingsley and O-T Fagbenle as a prequel to House of David.[10]
