is being released Oct. 12 on DVD by Nasser Entertainment Group and distributed to by Phase 4 Films.

The modern-day version of the best-selling 1896 novel by Charles M. Sheldon, In His Steps, marks a 10-year labor of love for producer Joseph Nasser, whose Hollywood credentials include making more than 50 films and working with the likes of Sidney Poitier, Faye Dunaway, Patty Duke, Tom Berenger and Mary McDonnell.

Nasser was battling cancer when his young son gave him a copy of the book. It inspired him in his health challenge, and he vowed that if he got well, he would personally answer the question, "What Would Jesus Do?"--and as a filmmaker bring the inspirational message to the screen.

In WWJD , John Schneider (The Dukes of Hazzard, The Secret Life of the American Teenager) stars as a drifter who turns quiet Raymond upside down when he arrives in town with his radical question. Also in the cast is Maxine Bahns (The Brothers McMullen, She's the One), who stars as Virginia.

Including an e-book edition of the Sheldon original, the DVD releases to Christian retail a month ahead of the general market. WWJD retails for $29.99. Click here for more information on the film.
