The director of the upcoming "Left Behind" movie reboot believes that we are currently living during the end times. The popular "Left Behind" movie trilogy is being rebooted with a brand new all-star cast.

The new film stars Nicolas Cage, Chad Michael Murray, Cassi Thomson, Nicky Whelan, Jordin Sparks, Lolo Jones, and "Back to the Future" star Lea Thompson to name a few.

"It's prophesied in the Bible and the Bible says that before the beginning of the tribulation which will be in the end times, which I have no doubt we are living in the end times so therefore it could happen tomorrow, that the church is going to be called home and caught up in the air and taken to heaven and that's what this movie's about," said film producer Paul LaLonde to The Blaze in an interview yesterday.

Murray plays Cameron "Buck" Williams, a reporter who realizes that the world he lives in is not what it seems before the Tribulation period happens as described in the Bible. The role of Williams was first portrayed by "Growing Pains" and "Way of the Master" star Kirk Cameron in the original "Left Behind" movie trilogy.

The film producer explained the main reason the movie is being remade is because they want "Left Behind" to be "bigger and better, so that we can have a broader reach and a shot at a broader audience."

"The second reason is that the first movie was based on the entire first book in the series, so a book this fat turned into a screenplay with 57 plot points and no real time to get to know the characters," said LaLonde to The Blaze. "And the quintessential event that triggers all of Bible prophecy is the Rapture - and that got like three minutes of screen time in the first movie."

The release of the "Left Behind" movie was just announced yesterday afternoon. "On October 3rd, join Nicolas Cage, Chad Michael Murray, Cassi Thomson, Nicky Whelan & Jordin Sparks for the flight of a lifetime! SHARE this with your friends and make sure they don't get 'Left Behind,'" the movies Facebook said.
