Gods of Egypt — Super Bowl Trailer

added: Sat, Feb 6th '16

Looking for a movie that features a giant serpent monster attacking Jaime Lannister from Game of Thrones? Well, look no further as "I, Robot" director Alex Proyas' newest fantasy spectacle, "Gods of Egypt," has that and more.

After being summoned to help ignite a war in Egypt, a monstrous snake beast unleashes its fang-filled fury in a new 60-second Super Bowl commercial for the upcoming God-vs-God epic, which seems to hark back to the Ray Harryhausen era of filmmaking. At least, that's what we hope to see when the movie opens in theaters later this month.

Gerard Butler and "Game of Thrones" star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau play two warring Egyptian deities vying for the throne, which sets off a raging battle among Egyptian Gods. Meanwhile, the fate of the world rests in the hands of a young mortal man (Brenton Thwaites) who chooses to side with the noble one-eyed god Horus (Coster-Waldau).

Also starring Geoffrey Rush, Chadwick Boseman, and Elodie Yung, "Gods of Egypt" will be hitting theaters on February 26th.

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 (Brenton 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 (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) in an unlikely alliance against Set (Gerard 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.
