Gods of Egypt is a 2016
fantasy-action film featuring ancient Egyptian deities. The United
States-Australia production is directed by Alex Proyas and stars Brenton
Thwaites, Gerard Butler, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Chadwick Boseman, Élodie Yung,
Courtney Eaton, Rufus Sewell, and Geoffrey Rush. Butler plays the god of
darkness Set who takes over the Egyptian empire, and Thwaites plays the mortal
hero Bek who partners with the god Horus, played by Coster-Waldau, to save the
world and rescue his love.
Filming took place in Australia
under the American studio Summit Entertainment. While the film's production
budget was $140 million, the parent company Lionsgate's financial exposure was
less than $10 million due to tax incentives and pre-sales. The Australian
government provided a tax credit for 46% of the film's budget. When Lionsgate
began promoting the film in November 2015, it received backlash for its
predominantly white cast playing Egyptian deities. In response, Lionsgate and
director Alex Proyas apologized for the lack of casting diversity.
Lionsgate released Gods of
Egypt in theaters globally starting on February 25, 2016 in 2D, RealD 3D, and
IMAX 3D. It released the film in the United States, Canada, and 68 other
markets on February 26, 2016. It received negative reviews from film critics. Source
