What happens

House of David is an American Biblical historical drama television series. Created, co-directed, and co-written by filmmaker Jon Erwin for Amazon Prime Video, it is a multi-season series about the life of King David. Primarily set in the Kingdom of Israel in 1000 BC, the series depicts the rise of David, tracing his journey from his paternal servitude as a shepherd to his battle against Goliath and eventual kingship with the House of David succeeding the House of Saul. Michael Iskander stars as David alongside Ali Suliman, Stephen Lang, Ayelet Zurer, Indy Lewis, Ethan Kai, and Martyn Ford. The series was produced by The Wonder Project, a studio led by Erwin and Kelly Merryman Hoogstraten, in collaboration with Amazon MGM Studios, and is internationally distributed by Lionsgate. The creators have emphasized that the show is made for a broad audience, not just religious people. The series premiered on February 27, 2025, with the first three episodes made available on Amazon Prime Video, followed by weekly releases for the remaining episodes. The series received positive feedback for its high production quality and its respectful portrayal of Jewish traditions and the biblical story. Within its first 17 days, the show attracted 22 million viewers, and Amazon Prime announced the renewal for a second season. Season 2 was released beginning October 5, 2025 exclusively to subscribers to the Wonder Project add-on, with general availability to all Prime subscribers on March 27, 2026.
