Michael Iskander, Martyn Ford, Ayelet Zurer and the cast of "House of David," premiering Thursday on Prime Video, discussed humanizing the biblical legends.

House of David is set to be a faithful adaptation of the biblical tale, embracing the era's brutality while delivering a gritty drama replete with complex characters. The acclaimed director, writer, producer, and entrepreneur dissected the David versus Goliath story not merely as the archetypal underdog battle but as an odyssey of self-realisation.

The cast of House of David is spearheaded by the newcomer Iskander, fresh off his Tony Award-winning musical Kimberly Akimbo, marking his first screen credit. King Saul is a strong leader who wants to build a legacy for generations - but he gradually loses his grip on his kingdom.
