Plot
In the hallowed halls of the Vatican, Sir John Brannox assumes the papacy under the title of John Paul III, pushing against the tide of scandal that threatens to dismantle the very foundations of the Church. A series of tarnishing sexual indiscretions has cast a shadow over the institution, and it's up to John Paul III to restore its once unblemished reputation. Yet, amidst this turbulence, a bolt from the heavens strikes - Lenny Belardo, the former Pope Pius XIII, awakens from a nine-month coma.
Belardo, whose reign was abruptly ceased by a heart attack during a mass, emerges from his slumber and stakes his claim to the sacred throne of Rome. The resurrection of Pius XIII sends shockwaves through the Christian world, transforming the reverence of countless believers into fervent idolatry for the re-emerged Pope.
This unprecedented circumstance of dual papacies in the Vatican ignites an internal struggle of biblical proportions. Between Pius XIII’s resolute determination to reclaim his authority and John Paul III's steadfast resolve to retain his position, an intriguing power struggle ensues. The New Pope (2020) weaves this tapestry of faith, power, and ambition, wrapped in the divine dilemma of duelling papacies.
