'The Bible' casts Obama look-a-like

'The Bible' has been a hit for The History Channel with record ratings, reviews, and controversy.

The mini-series has recently came under fire for casting an Obama look-a-like to play the role of Satan.

Producers for the show deny purposely casting an Obama look-a-like and claim to have the utmost respect for the U.S. President.

"Both Mark and I have nothing but respect and love for our President, who is a fellow Christian," said Producer Roma Downey. "False statement such as these are just designed as a foolish distraction to try and discredit the beauty of the story of The Bible."

You can catch next week's episode on Sunday, 8 pm E.T. on The History Channel.
