Jonathan Roumie Says His Calling Is to Tell Stories That Glorify God and Bring Light to the Culture

Updated Feb 02, 2026

Actor Jonathan Roumie opens up with Crosswalk Talk's Michael Foust about his new Angel rom-com Solo Mio, explaining why the Kevin James-led film goes deeper than a typical romantic comedy while remaining family-friendly and theater-worthy. He also reflects on stepping outside his iconic role in The Chosen, embracing comedy again, and why he’s drawn to characters with big hearts and real flaws. Roumie shares how faith continues to shape his calling as a storyteller committed to honoring God and bringing light into the culture.
