H2: What ‘David’ covers
Angel Studios’ David brings one of the Bible’s most dramatic lives to the big screen. The film follows David’s rise from a humble shepherd boy to the king of Israel, highlighting his courage, failures and continual return to God. The climactic encounter with Goliath is staged not only as an act of physical bravery but as a spiritual turning point for the future of a nation.
H3: Story themes and tone
David explores faith, repentance, loyalty and leadership in short, clear scenes that families can follow. The film balances action — battles and palace intrigue — with quieter emotional beats: betrayal, devotion and personal struggle. Angel Studios frames David’s journey as both human and spiritual, underlining why he is remembered as “a man after God’s own heart.”
H3: Cast and voices
Worship artist Phil Wickham lends his voice to the adult David, bringing a reflective and worshipful tone to the character. Wickham told The Christian Post that he connects with David’s pattern of sin and repentance: “He always came back to God … That’s where I connect with David most.” Young David is voiced by actor, dancer and singer Brandon Engman, giving the film continuity between David’s childhood and kingship.
