Yes, I'm aware of the 1966 film about it, I'm asking about a current one, with a 200 million dollar budget.
Ojoalvirus: No, that would be Samuel L. Jackson, sorry.

Who knows? Mel Gibson banked hundreds of millions off of a few chapters…

that would be the biggest flop in history of movies because they would only make it to rip people off like mel did

A lot of Christians would buy it.

I have always wanted to see the pre-bible story get made into a major sci fi movie. Only if the script was written properly and meshed well with the sci fi. The story of Lucifer's rebellion. I think that would be kick ass.

Would Ben Stein play Moses?

Ah. It would gross 40 pesos!
And 15 with Stein.

I skipped Mel Gibson's story. I would likely avoid it unless it came on one of the movie stations and I had nothing else better to do. The story lines are always cherry and corney. If they actually made a real version from front to back, Christians would be upset with the violence in old book, and the new book would have some weird story lines, the way movies go. Most would expect a story about a certain person or event. I don't think the general public would sit long enough, or be focused enough to really go the whole hog of the Bible.

1) If the Holy Bible were to be made into a high-budget film how much would it gross in today's economy?
It's odd that no one has done this, except as a consequence of the sheer length of the bible. Notice how well Gibson's film did – very.
Realistically, if you want to draw the religious, you have to at least closely resemble the text of the bible. That means NOT including all of the "artistic license" found extensively in older bible-related films. The dismal popularity of "One Night with the King" is an example of what happens with Christian audiences when you depart radically from the biblical account.
It would seem, though, that a well-done and well-funded bible movie would have outstanding international appeal (as Gibson proved). Indeed, I would expect it to be at least as lucrative as "The Lord of the Ring" trilogy. The trick is – could they keep themselves from altering the "script"?
