BTS Look at Ridley Scott’s EXODUS Movie

Opening in theaters on December 12, go behind the scenes in the making of 20th Century Fox’s epic EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS from director Ridley Scott.

The NOAH movie opened the floodgates for biblical movies at the beginning of 2014 and to some, a welcome visit back to the Golden Age of Hollywood.

With EXODUS bowing at the end of the year during awards season, Scott solidifies his status among the ranks of those larger-than-life directors – David Lean, Cecil B. DeMille, William Wyler, Joseph L. Mankiewicz – in his latest historical drama.

Casting is everything and with huge stars like Oscar-winners Christian Bale and Ben Kingsley, Oscar-nominee Sigourney Weaver and Joel Edgerton, the filmmaker may find himself at Hollywood’s big party in February. Last time Scott went epic was in May 2000 when GLADIATOR opened in theaters and later went on to win five Oscars, including Best Picture, at the 73rd Academy Awards.

Another plus in the possible awards column is that he has surrounded himself with such artists as production designer Arthur Max (GLADIATOR), cinematographer Dariusz Wolski (PROMETHEUS), editor Billy Rich (PROMISED LAND), costume designer Janty Yates (GLADIATOR), composer Alberto Iglesias (TINKER TAILER SOLDIER SPY) and screenwriter Steven Zaillian (SCHINDLER’S LIST).

EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS is 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 Pharoah Ramses (Joel Edgerton), setting 600,000 slaves on a monumental journey of escape from Egypt and its terrifying cycle of deadly plagues.
