The Prophecy - Watch Order: Core Trilogy
This watch order focuses on the original Gabriel trilogy, which forms the heart of The Prophecy series. These three films tell a cohesive story centered around Christopher Walken's memorable performance as the fallen angel Gabriel and his ongoing schemes against humanity.
For viewers seeking the essential Prophecy experience without the narrative shift of the later films, this trilogy provides the complete arc of Gabriel's celestial rebellion. The story maintains consistent characters, tone, and directly connected plotlines throughout all three entries.
The Prophecy
The angel Gabriel comes to Earth to collect a soul which will end the stalemated war in Heaven, and only a former priest and a little girl can stop him.
The Prophecy II
In this direct-to-video sequel, Gabriel returns to try to destroy the human race he despises so much, with the help of a suicidal teen and the opposition of the angel Daniel.
The Prophecy 3: The Ascent
The conclusion to The Prophecy Trilogy. Once again, Christopher Walken returns as the Arch-Angel Gabriel. As the War in Heaven and on Earth rages on, Pyriel, the Angel of Genocide, rises to power, intending to destroy all of mankind. The only one who stands in his way is Danyael, who was born of an Angel and a woman.
