Last Days in the Desert is a 2015 American drama film directed and written by Rodrigo García. A variation on the biblical story of the Temptation of Christ, the film stars Ewan McGregor in a dual role of Jesus - referred to in the film as "Yeshua" - and a demon who may or may not be Satan, while Tye Sheridan, Ciarán Hinds and Ayelet Zurer play a family they meet while in the desert.
Last Days in the Desert premiered at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival on January 25, 2015 and was released in the United States on May 13, 2016.
