What is The Chosen One about?

The Chosen One follows three young doctors who travel to the remote region of Pantanal to deliver a Zika vaccine to residents. Once there they clash with a local faith healer who can seemingly cure any disease and soon become trapped in this community full of secrets, mysteries and supernatural powers.

Expect a mystery-thriller that questions religion, medicine and even death itself.

What will happen in season 2 of The Chosen One?

Not much is known about the new season, but there are still plenty of questions still to answer. Season 1 ended with Enzo injecting Lúcia with an uncurable viral strain, suggesting that the doctors will be forced to return to the cult while more divided than ever.

Fans will discover what really happened to Damião, whether Enzo really is that villainous and perhaps even a definitive explanation of the Chosen One's healing abilities.

Brazilian stars Paloma Bernadi, Gutto Szuster and Paedro Caetano play the humanitarian doctors getting more than they bargained for, with 3% actor Renan Tenca as the elusive "Chosen One" himself.
