SNL Video: ‘Djesus Uncrossed’ from Quentin Tarantino

Are you ready for Quentin Tarantino’s next movie? Saturday Night Live teases it will be Djesus Unchained. Christoph Waltz will play Jesus, risen from the dead to avenge his death and kill Romans. Brad Pitt will channel his Inglorious Basterds‘ character, this time playing St. Peter urging his troops to kill Ro-mans.

This SNL version of a possible Tarantino movie would also cast Ving Rhames as Pontius Pilate a la Marsellus Wallace and getting all Old Testament on Jesus, and Samuel L Jackson as Judas Iscariot. And before Jesus blows away Judas, he says, “When you get to Heaven, say hi to my dad.”

SNL‘s made available an extended version of the sketch. The sketch aired on the February 16, 2013 episode hosted by Christoph Waltz.
