“This movie shows me at my worst moments. It wasn’t easy for me to watch, especially at first,” Robertson told Movieguide. “But, The Blind is also a movie about love and hope. If a scoundrel like me can be redeemed, then believe me, so can you. There’s nothing you’ve done that’s beyond God’s grace.”
The Blind was filmed on location in Louisiana and will cover “never-before-revealed” aspects of Phil’s life.
“It was important to us that the film be real,” Willie Robertson told Deadline. “The transformation of Phil proves that anyone can change and that there is always hope.”
Most fans know of his philandering ways back in the day and how he found Jesus, got himself clean, and turned his entire life around – meanwhile building a huge duck call empire.
Phil promoted the movie on his official Instagram page and wrote, “This movie shows me at my worst moments. It wasn’t easy for me to watch, especially at first. But ‘The Blind’ is also a movie about love and hope. If a scoundrel like me can be redeemed, then believe me, so can you. There’s nothing you’ve done that’s beyond God’s grace.”
