The Passion (8 p.m., Fox) - A live musical retelling of the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ, but with a modern twist – it is set in present-day New Orleans. The music will also be contemporary. The all-star cast includes North Carolina native Chris Daughtry as Judas. The rest of the cast: Jencarlos Canela as Jesus, Trisha Yearwood as Mary, Seal as Pontius Pilate and Prince Royce as Peter. It’s hosted by Tyler Perry and will open and close with songs by gospel singer Yolanda Adams. Fox last staged a live musical in January, when it aired “Grease.”
