Actor Jim Caviezel says he's turning to C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters for spiritual preparation as he prepares to reprise the role of Jesus in "The Resurrection of the Christ," the forthcoming sequel to Mel Gibson's 2004 film "The Passion of the Christ."

I'm surprised he's coming back for this role. Heard he almost died during the first one.
