Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014, Scott) S: Bale, Paul, Edgerton, Weaver, Kingsley

Director Ridley Scott has been tapdancing around a number of projects since completing last year's PROMETHEUS, one of them being the Biblical epic, EXODUS, which covers the story of Moses and his brother, Ramses.

According to THR, Christian Bale is onboard to portray Moses, while ZERO DARK THIRTY and THE GREAT GATSBY actor Joel Edgerton is being sought for Egyptian ruler Ramses, which is essentially the villain role. The film is said to be moving forward with a September start date, filming in Spain, Morocco, and England.

EXODUS is currently on the books for December 12, 2014.

Re: Exodus (2014) (D: Scott; S: Bale)

MOSES: Am I going to walk around and rip your fucking pyramids down, in the middle of a proclamation? Then why the fuck are you swimming right through? Ah-da-da-dah, like this in the background. What the fuck is it with you? What don't you fucking understand? You got any fucking idea about, hey, it's fucking distracting having somebody swimming up behind Aaron in the middle of the fucking proclamation? Give me a fucking answer! What don't you get about it?

PHARAOH: I was bathing in the Nile.

MOSES: Ohhhhh, goooood for you. And how was it? I hope it was fucking good, because it's useless now, isn't it?

PHARAOH: OK.

MOSES: Fucks sake man, you're amateur. Yahweh, you got fucking something to say to this prick?

YAHWEH: I didn't see it happen.

MOSES: Well, somebody should be fucking watching and keeping an eye on him.

YAHWEH: Fair enough.

MOSES: It's the second time that he doesn't give a fuck about what is going on in front of the camera, all right? I'm trying to fucking do a proclamation here, and I am going "Why the fuck is Pharaoh swimming in there? What is he doing there?" Do you understand my mind is not in the proclamation if you're doing that?

PHARAOH: I absolutely apologise. I'm sorry, I did not mean anything by it.

MOSES: Stay off the fucking Nile man. For fucks sake. Alright, let's go again.

YAHWEH: Let's just take a minute.

MOSES: Let's not take a fucking minute, let's go again.

MOSES: I'm going to fucking kick your fucking ass if you don't shut up for a second! All right?

UNKNOWN HEBREW/EGYPTIAN VOICES: Moses, Moses. It's cool.

MOSES: I'm going to go... Do you want me to fucking go trash your pyramids? Do you want me to fucking trash 'em? Then why are you trashing my proclamation?

PHARAOH: I'm not trying to trash your proclamation.

MOSES: You are trashing my proclamation!

PHARAOH: Moses, I was only...

MOSES: You do it one more fucking time and I ain't walking on this kingdom if you're still hired. I'm fucking serious. You're a nice guy. You're a nice guy, but that don't fucking cut it when you're fucking around like this on the Nile.

Re: Exodus (2014) (D: Scott; S: Bale)

BREAKING: 20th Century Fox and director Ridley Scott have set four more stars for Exodus, the Biblical epic that already has Christian Bale set to star as Moses and Joel Edgerton as the Egyptian pharoah Ramses II. Ben Kingsley is in talks to play a Hebrew scholar, John Turturro is set to play Seti, father of the Pharoah Ramses, Sigourney Weaver is set to play Ramses’ mother Tuya, and Emmy-winning Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul is negotiating to play Joshua, the Hebrew slave who leads the people into the promised land after Moses.

The script is by Steve Zaillian, and Adam Cooper and Bill Collage were the first writers who sold the pitch to Chernin Entertainment, which is producing along with Scott Free. CAA and Independent Talent rep Kingsley, ICM Partners reps Turturro, UTA reps Weaver and UTA and Leverage rep Paul.

In the picture at the bottom it looks like they tried to make Bale look like a bearded Michael Fassbender.

Isn't Joel Edgerton the guy who was Bane's brother in Warrior? Does this mean Batmoses is gonna have an MMA fight against Ramses?

True. I wanted a blonde haired blue-eyed Moses. Dafuq is this?

Christian Bale should have passed on this and collected a big fat Batman/Superman check.

The Bible says Moses was "slow of speech" - I'm guessing we WON'T be seeing that version.

Maybe it's harkening back to this biblical epics of the old days. They had their problems, but at least some of the spectacle was impressive. If they're looking for big productions where they can use lots of special effects, the Bible certainly has those. After Prometheus and The Counselor, I'm assuming Scott has joined the film is dead party and will shoot this digitally too? At least those old-school epics had actual spectacle instead of CGI.

This looks like it'll be as Biblically accurate as Noah (not that any of the classic Bible epics were ever slavishly devoted to the text). I can't wait for the outrage.
