The Journey Begins in this New Trailer for Gods of Egypt
Lionsgate’s Gods of Egypt found itself in a bit of hot water recently for hiring mostly white actors, but that seems to be blowing over; and with the film heading to theaters in February of next year, a new trailer has arrived. Watch it to see how the journey begins!
From director Alexander Proyas (The Crow; Dark City; I, Robot), comes a completely original action-adventure tale from a world before time began, when gods ruled the earth.
In order to save the world and bring his true love back to life, a clever mortal thief (Brenton Thwaites) teams up with a powerful and vengeful god (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) to stop the god of darkness (Gerard Butler), who hopes to destroy both this life and the afterlife. Chadwick Boseman, Elodie Yung, Courtney Eaton, and Geoffrey Rush co-star.
Don’t miss all the action and adventure with Gods of Egypt, coming to theaters February 26, 2016!
Synopsis:
In this spectacular action-adventure inspired by the classic mythology of Egypt, the survival of mankind hangs in the balance as an unexpected mortal hero, Bek (Thwaites), undertakes a thrilling journey to save the world and rescue his true love. In order to succeed, he must enlist the help of the powerful god Horus (Coster-Waldau) in an unlikely alliance against Set (Butler), the merciless god of darkness, who has usurped Egypt’s throne, plunging the once peaceful and prosperous empire into chaos and conflict.
As their breathtaking battle against Set and his henchmen takes them into the afterlife and across the heavens, both god and mortal must pass tests of courage and sacrifice if they hope to prevail in the epic final confrontation.
