The good news is that, if negotiations with 300 star work out, he would come on board to play Set, the Egyptian God of the desert, storms, and foreigners. Check out the rest of this report to find more details… At this moment we know that Alex Proyas is set to direct the whole thing from an original script written by Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama, while Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is already set to play Horus, God of the Sky. The movie will revolve around Horus, who teams with Hathor, the Goddess of Love, and the human thief to avenge the death of his father, Osiris.
