Geoffrey Rush Joins Gerard Butler & Nikolaj Coster-Waldau In GODS OF EGYPT
Alex Proyas will co-write and direct this fantasy flick which focuses on deities from Egyptian mythology, and as you can see he's assembled quite a cast so far. Click on to find out who the above trio will be playing..
We've kept this one just under our radar until casting began to heat up, and that it most certainly has! The Alex Proyas (The Crow, Dark City) directed Gods Of Egypt will tell the story of Horus' mission to avenge his father Osiris' (god of the Underworld) death at the hands of his uncle, Set (god of the desert) joining forces with a human hero (isn't there always one?) in the process. Game Of Thrones' Nikolaj Coster-Waldau will play Horus, Gerard Butler will play Set, and Geoffrey Rush has now signed on to play the sun god Ra, father of Set and Osiris. Proyas wrote the script with Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama, who are behind Universal’s upcoming horror saga Dracula Untold .This sounds interesting, and could be something special...then again it could also be Clash Of The Titans! Thoughts?
