Talking About 'Jesus Revolution' Has Actor Kelsey Grammer In Tears
March 09, 2023
Actor Kelsey Grammer fights back tears as he talks about the amazing story behind his role in the movie, 'Jesus Revolution.'
Generally, Hollywood isn’t an industry known for producing films about Christ or His message. That’s what makes the emotional reaction of one well-known actor to a movie about a spiritual awakening so notable.

Actor Kelsey Grammer appeared on Live with Kelly and Ryan to promote his latest film “Jesus Revolution.” While discussing the movie with Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest, Kelsey’s eyes started welling up with tears.
The clip, posted on YouTube, begins right after a look at a scene from the film. Almost instantly, Kelly takes notice of and mentions Kelsey’s emotional reaction. The Frasier star responds, stating why he began tearing up.
“I love this movie. I really love it,” Kelsey said. “And when my, when we first saw the first cut, we sat down in our home and Kate saw it, she said, ‘Oh my God, it’s the best thing you’ve ever done.’ She started crying.”

“He’s a man looking for his own faith and finds it as well,” he said. “A man whose church is empty, and he can’t get traction and he’s starting to think he’s going to get fired from his job as a pastor. This hippie comes into his life, and he finds new purpose and started a movement that is still, still going.”
Kelsey also told the pair that many people have come up to him and told him of their personal experiences with his character, the late Chuck Smith. Several recalled being either baptized or married by the pastor.
