Film Producer denies Paris Jackson Jesus depiction as lesbian in movie
British independent film producer Cassian Cary Elwes has addressed the protests by Christian organizations over his upcoming film Habit. Many have implied that the movie which features late Pop icon Michael Jackson’s daughter is blasphemous. It was therefore, described as an attack against Christianity
Reports have initially alleged that Paris Jackson would be playing the part of Jesus as a lesbian woman. Multiple Christian organizations such as Movieguide and One Million Moms started petitions calling for the film’s cancellation. Both petitions have garnered thousands of signatures.
According to the film’s official description, the movie follows a “party girl with a Jesus fetish. She gets mixed up in a violent drug deal and finds a possible way out by masquerading as a nun.”

Elwes, who leads the independent film production company Elevated Films, however dismissed claims that Jackson would be playing a lesbian Jesus. He called the notion “absolute nonsense.”
When a reporter asked Elwes about the petitions made against Habit, he asserted that the controversy was overblown.
“Of course the story has been completely blown out of proportion.” Elwes wrote last week on Twitter. “In fact, Paris appears in a fantasy moment [] where Bella has a vision of her mother… dressed as Jesus.”
Paris Jackson herself is yet to comment on the film, more also her reported depiction of Jesus Christ.
