It is well known that Will Smith can be in any movie he wants. Whether he’s battling robots, vampire zombies or being a lazy ass superhero. So news that Will Smith may be playing a Pharaoh doesn’t surprise me one bit. Sun Media recently spoke to screenwriter Chris Hauty, who is polishing a script by Carl Franklin called The Last Pharaoh. The film evolves around…
Taharqa, who was king of Egypt (from 690 BC to 664 BC) and a member of the Nubian or 25th dynasty of Egypt. He was the son of Piye, the Nubian king of Napata who had first conquered Egypt, and the younger brother and successor of Shebitku. The story is about Ethiopians battling Assyrians for the throne of Amun-Ra.
Will Smith has apparently taken interest in this, so expect to see The Fresh Prince playing a King of Egypt!
