Ridley Scott’s retelling of the Moses story, Exodus: Gods and Kings won’t arrive in theaters until this December. However, thanks to the movie’s first official trailer being launched this week, the expected debates - revolving around the film’s treatment of the Biblical source material, the races of its cast members, and so forth – have already begun to rage online. Meanwhile, Scott has weighed in on such matters as the film’s scope, its daunting digital effects, and the reason behind why the Gods and Kings subtitle was added on (after the movie was originally dubbed simply Exodus).
Exodus had a relatively tight production schedule (74 days) for a modern-day sweeping historical epic, especially one that wasn’t just shot in controlled sound stage environments (part of filming took place in real-world locations in Spain). Then again, Scott – who turns 77 later this year – has kept on working at an extraordinary pace in the 21st century, with Exodus due to be the eighth film that he’s released over the past decade alone.
Nonetheless, for some time now Scott has promised that Exodus will be “f***ing huge” in its scope – something that the footage in the trailer very much supports – yet, at the same time, has indicated that what attracted him to retell the Moses story “isn’t the big stuff” that “everyone” is familiar with from past cinematic renditions of the tale (see: The Ten Commandments, The Prince of Egypt). The filmmaker explained how he reconciled these seemingly contradictory approaches, when asked by Empire if Exodus is indeed his “biggest” project to date:
“Well, in terms of the metaphorical aspects, yes [this is the biggest project I’ve done]. Even budgetarily it’s probably the biggest, yeah. But I didn’t approach it as my biggest. I never do that. I always approach it from the point of view of the characters, of the story. I never realised Gladiator was going to be quite as large in terms of its scope and yet it was a very small, personal story. A revenge. A simple revenge into which we had jigsawed some characters.”
In many ways, the story for Exodus, as scripted by Oscar-winner Steve Zaillian (Scott’s collaborator on Hannibal and American Gangster), like Gladiator, boils down to a simple, brother vs. brother story – pitting Christian Bale’s Moses against his adopted sibling Rhamses (Joel Edgerton) – albeit, set against the backdrop of a larger narrative that deals with warfare, plagues, and literal acts of God. We got a tantalizing sneak peek at that in the Gods and Kings trailer (including, what appears to be the Parting of the Red Sea sequence – see above), yet Scott is promising that there’s plenty more where that came from.
