Gerard Butler will play Set, god of the desert and storms who kills his own brother Osiris after which he gets in conflict with Horus (Coster-Waldau), the son of Osiris and god of sky, who seeks revenge together with Hathor, goddess of love. 'Deadline' reports that Thwaites will play Bek, a human thief who cares little for the affairs of gods but when he discovers his love has been cursed by Set, he falls on the side of Horus, hoping that Set’s death will break the curse!
