Will Smith’s Overbook Entertainment is planning to shoot a movie called “Last Pharaoh”, about the last Nubian king Taharqa who ruled Egypt in its rough period from 690 to 664 BC.

As his producing company is planning to produce and shoot the movie, Will Smith wants the part of Taharqa who fought the warrior people of the Assyrians for the control of Egypt.

Overbook Entertainment is presently looking for a set to shot the movie, which is expected to appear on the big screen by 2010.

ps. I think Djimon Honsou would make a better Tirhaka.

I am a big Will Smith fan. I am interested.

for this to work they have to get the best costume designers and the best in computer graphics. This period in history had the Cushite/Ethiopian Empire moving up north conquering the Egyptian Empire, whilst the Assyrian were moving down south through Damascus, Tyre, Sidon and Israel. The cultural diversity is enough to drowned you, and they better get it correct.

Imagine seeing Nineveh, Damascus, Tyre, Jerusalem and the cities of Egypt in one movie.

ps. and the women have to be very beautiful. It has to be on the level of the 10 commandments with Charleston Heston.

I'm interested. Let me know when it's out and IF it's older kid appropriate.
