EPIC NEW POSTERS ARE HERE!
The end of this year is bringing us a number of epic adventures to the big screens, and beside the final chapter of THE HOBBIT THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES, another epic spectacle to feast our eyes on will definitely be Ridley Scott's Ancient Egypt historical movie of humongous proportions EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS. The movie just got three new posters and you can check them out today! With Christian Bale leading the star studded cast the movie will battle its way into cinemas December 12th!
THE STAR STUDDED CAST
CHRISTIAN BALE, AARON PAUL, JOEL EDGERTON, BEN KINGSLEY
Ridley Scott's visually mindblowing and large scale interpretation of the legendary exodus of the Hebrews from Ancient Egypt as led by Moses (Christian Bale) and related in the Old Testament Book of Exodus, will also star Australian actor Joel Edgerton as Egyptian ruler Pharaoh Ramesses II, with Sigourney Weaver and John Turturro as his parents Tuya and Seti! Aaron Paul will sport a long hair as Joshua, with Ben Kingsley as Nun and Indira Varma as High Priestess Miriam! The lavish costumes are done by 
famous Oscar winner Janty Yates who already worked with Ridley on his other historical classics GLADIATOR, ROBIN HOOD and in KINGDOM OF HEAVEN!
DEFYING AN EMPIRE
The sweeping historical epic will bring the story of one man’s daring courage to take on the might of an empire. Using state of the art visual effects and 3D immersion, Scott brings new life to the story of the defiant leader Moses (Christian Bale) as he rises up against the Egyptian Pharaoh Ramesses (Joel
Edgerton), setting 400,000 slaves on a
monumental journey of escape from Egypt and its terrifying cycle of
deadly plagues. Check out the breathtaking trailer below:

Ancient Egypt is so rich and fascinating...as this trailer!
ReplyDeleteit will be absolutely epic!
DeleteThe story of Moses really is remarkable. Raised to think he was Egyptian Royalty, undoubtedly taught to despise the Jewish slaves as inferior pawns, and then to discover on adulthood that he is one of them! Talk about existential angst. But then he embraces who he truly is and leads his people to freedom. I never really understood the emotional significance of Moses's story until I went through the coming out process with its similar discoveries, shocks, adjustments and triumphs.
ReplyDeleteglad to hear it finished with triumphs, Debs!
DeleteEXODUS looks epic! I shall look forward to seeing Christian Bale. Great actor :)
ReplyDeleteshould be a huge spectacle
DeleteI hope we get to see Moses forget about that Thou Shalt Not Kill thing he preached about. Though to be fair, a majority of biblical characters have been hypocrites.
ReplyDeleteHear, hear... not that I've ever read Bible....
DeleteChristian Bale... Just hearing his name makes me pale. Or blue if I were white. "I'm BATMAN!!!!!!" No, you're not - not even if you tried a bit harder. I'm sure he's a great guy and all, but Idon't like any of his movies, including his first :(
ReplyDeletehe isn't actually a great guy :) Has temper issues and numerous police reports against family violence. He is married to a Serbian girl and hates her mother and sister :)
DeleteSee.... always trust your instincts, Blue....
DeleteAs I watched the trailer I thought of the discovery made at the location of chariot wheels, armor and all sorts of things. Don't remember the discoverer's name, but it sent chills up my spine. This will good. Janty Yates on the costumes has done it again.
ReplyDeleteyou mean the whole story is real?
DeleteHaven't seen the movie but oh yes, there are some very expensive treasures at the site of the crossing. It was more like 6 million that crossed the path through the sea. I'll try to find the link for the documentary.
Deletenya, don't have to, I generally yawn at Biblical stories and religious ones :)
DeleteMy mate can't stop talking about Exodus!
ReplyDeletethe movie or the real one?
DeleteThis is probably the one movie I'm most looking forward to seeing before the end of 2014. I think it's going to be incredible.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for this one and HOBBIT
DeleteI think I would like to see this film... thank you for coverage.
ReplyDeleteBe welcome, stranger
DeleteRidley is a great director so there's a great chance this movie might live up to the hype. Thanks for sharing those amazing posters.
ReplyDeleteand he is already preparing KING DAVID epic as his next project
DeleteI'm hoping this is every bit as good as Ben Hur was.
ReplyDeleteBen Hur was good? :)
DeleteExodus. No thanks. Again, I tend to yawn at anything based off the Bible.
ReplyDeleteyou just copied my comment to Dixie :)
