'Gods of Egypt' Release Date: Movie Slated For February 26 Nationwide Premiere But Chicago Sees It Early And For Free

"Gods of Egypt," an action-fantasy film, is scheduled to hit theaters on Feb. 26, but Chicago gets an early preview - and for free!
Director Alex Proyas have listed a cast that includes Gerard Butler and Chadwick Boseman. Plus, there are tons of CGI in the film where viewers will get to see flying Anubis creatures and over-sized beetles.
Proyas did issue a statement apologizing for the casting because the actors enlisted were non-Egyptian but the production team still hopes that people will see the film anyway.
The film is written by Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama. The story behind the title revolves around a common thief played by Brenton Thwaites. His character Bek undertakes a mystical journey that will require him to save the world and rescue his one true love from the evil god of darkness - Set - played by Gerard Butler. Would a mortal thief stand a chance against a god? Of course not. Which is why he enlists the help of Horus - played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. Like all fictional and mystical movies - there's romance and tests of courage and strength.
If the story and CGI is not enough to get fans going, then maybe seeing Gerard Butler's chiseled "300" features again would?
But if you can't wait to see the movie on Feb. 26, The A.V. Club and Lionsgate may have something in mind that will fit your fancy. Viewers can get the chance to see "Gods of Egypt" early on Feb. 24, free of charge at the AMC River East 21 in Chicago, Illinois. All you need to do is follow this link and enter the information necessary. The A.V. Club advises viewers to arrive early to guarantee seats as it may be overbooked.
