Synopsis
Jodie is a 12 year old boy living in Mexico. He realizes that he has powers similar to those of Jesus, such as turning water into wine, walking on water, and raising the dead. In the plot he will have to decide whether or not to accept the gifts.
Among the events of The Chosen One is the discovery, by religious members of the community, of Jodie’s powers. With this, he is convinced that he must use his powers to bring peace to the world. However, the boy’s intention is different: to impress his friend Magda (Lilith Amelie Siordia Mejia) and get rid of the bullies. As the story progresses, the teenager makes discoveries about his past and everything changes.

The series consists of six episodes: Arrival; Miracles; Awakening; True or false?; Faith and Revelation. Most audiences and critics approved of the plot. However, Netflix has not yet confirmed whether there will be a second season, but the series finale suggests there could be a sequel.
