The Wager

is scheduled for release on DVD May 13 from Pure Flix Entertainment and is being distributed to Christian retail by Genius Products Inc.

Marketed directly to churches in late December, the film stars country music superstar Randy Travis who plays an actor in a modern day parable of Job. The movie also stars Bronson Pinchot (Perfect Strangers), Nancy Stafford (Matlock), Jude Ciccolella (24), Candace Cameron Bure (Full House) and Doug Jones (Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer).

Rated PG, The Wager covers controversial topics commonly avoided in many faith-based films, including divorce and adultery, sexual temptation and materialism.
