HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Dec. 16, 2015 (Gephardt Daily) — Lionsgate has just released its new trailer for “Gods of Egypt,” a new action-adventure about a clever mortal thief who teams up with a powerful and vengeful god to stop an evil god from destroying both this life and the afterlife.
In this spectacular action-adventure, 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.
The film, directed by Alex Proyas, stars Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Brenton Thwaites, Chadwick Boseman, Elodie Yung, Courtney Eaton, with Gerard Butler and Geoffrey Rush.
It opens in theaters February 26, 2016
