>Bible cinematic universe
HollyJew guys are using the term because that is still in vogue nowadays to have a cinematic universe for everything. The process is more benign in itself, having multiple directors and producers come and create distinct but partially interconnecting media for the overarching franchise project. You could try and fund a continuous series headed by sole over-arching directors, like what Roma Downey and Mark Burnett did for The Bible series last decade, but that takes a lot of resources and time and focuses all that on what the sole directors want, which is always a risky investment for financiers and producers
There is also no wholesale ban from God on depicting Biblical events or having a franchise like this, as long as the adaptation does not pervert the message of Scripture, make itself like an equal to the Word, or depicting things it probably should not, like the visions of God by Isaiah, Ezekiel, or Daniel. Like Paul says in Philippians, even if Dallas Jenkins and others are not sincere, we should hope that people do take interest in the Word and the Gospel from these adaptations.
As for the moral character of those making this so-called "Biblical cinematic universe", I don't like The Chosen and I don't think the material will be handled with the complete proper care that the Word of God deserves. However, I have not heard of or seen The House of David until you just posted this, so my opinions on this could change.
