Who stars in 'The Pope's Exorcist'?

In the horror movie, Russell Crowe portrays the real-life exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth, who was officially designated as the chief exorcist of the Vatican. The movie was inspired by his case files. Crowe, who is no stranger to religious-themed films, previously played the lead role of Noah in Darren Aronofsky's 'Noah'. Italian actor Franco Nero, who appeared in 'Django' and 'John Wick: Chapter 2,' plays the Pope, who personally assigns Amorth his latest task of exorcising a young boy possessed by a particularly evil demon. Ralph Ineson, best known for his performances in 'The Witch' and 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows', lends his signature baritone voice to the demonic entity that battles Amorth.

The movie also features other talented actors such as Laurel Marsden, Cornell S John, Alex Essoe, Daniel Zovatto, and Peter Desouza-Feighoney, making his debut in the film industry.
