The Pope’s Exorcist not only recreated the life of the titular real-life hero but also many other aspects of the Catholic Church’s history relating to the Spanish Inquisition. Focusing on Father Gabriele Amorth’s attempts at freeing an innocent Spanish boy from the clutches of Satanic forces, the 2023 supernatural horror finds Oscar winner Russell Crowe as the late chief exorcist for the Vatican. It was only a matter of time before Father Amorth received a cinematic adaptation of his life considering how he himself claimed to have performed tens of thousands of exorcisms in his lifetime (as per his 1999 book An Exorcist Tells His Story).
