Gods of Egypt is a 2016 fantasy 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,
Elodie 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.
