I Can Only Imagine 2 (Coming Soon!)

When I heard I Can Only Imagine 2 was coming out, the film took me to the song, which inevitably took me back. I have memories of the CD cover, hearing it on the radio and my parents turning it up. We knew the lyrics. It touched the heart every time.

“I Can Only Imagine” was a song that dominated the early 2000s like no other. We are excited to share that the highly anticipated sequel to the independent film I Can Only Imagine is coming just after the holiday season, in early 2026. The impactful song lays a backdrop to an inspiring story of faith.

Here is a sneak peek!

Where the film takes us: “After the breakout success of the song “I Can Only Imagine,” MercyMe’s Bart Millard (John Michael Finley) is living the dream—sold-out arenas, a devoted fan base, and a thriving career. But behind the spotlight, Bart’s past threatens the family he’s built, especially the fragile bond with his son, Sam (Sammy Dell).

When hopeful newcomer Tim Timmons (Milo Ventimiglia, “This Is Us”) joins the band for their biggest tour yet, he unknowingly brings a renewed gratitude to Bart’s life through their unlikely friendship. Bart soon discovers that Tim carries hardships—and secrets—of his own, forcing him to face his past and repair his relationships with Sam and his wife, Shannon (Sophie Skelton), before fame costs him what matters most. Based on the heartfelt true story behind the hit single “Even If,” I CAN ONLY IMAGINE 2 is the inspiring next chapter of faith, family, and finding God in the fire.” (Press)
