FOX has released photos for The Faithful: Women of the Bible Episode 1, “The Woman Who Bowed To No One,” airing tonight, Sunday, March 22 from 8:00–10:00 PM ET/PT. The premiere episode centers on Sarah, who struggles with feeling incomplete without the child that has been promised to her and her husband, Abraham, setting the stage for a powerful and emotional retelling of a biblical story.
After enduring isolation, famine, the wrath of Pharaoh, and years of barrenness, Sarah takes matters into her own hands by turning to her maidservant Hagar in an attempt to fulfill the promise. However, jealousy and mistrust quickly take hold, forcing Hagar into a difficult and life-changing decision about her future and that of her child. As tensions rise, the episode builds toward a miraculous turning point that changes everything for all involved.
Episodes of The Faithfulwill be told through the lens of five of The Old Testament’s most legendary women: Sarah (Minnie Driver) and her servant Hagar (Natacha Karam), Sarah’s great-niece Rebekah (Alexa Davalos), and Rebekah’s nieces, sisters Leah (Millie Brady) and Rachel (Blu Hunt).
