Hollywood's latest Biblical epic comes courtesy of Ridley Scott, director of the upcoming Exodus: Gods and Kings.
The film stars Christian Bale as Moses and Joel Edgerton as the Egyptian King Ramses. Bonus: Aaron Paul also appears in the film as Joshua, Moses' sidekick.
Exodus will be released on Dec. 12, so we'll see if it fares better than Darren Aronofsky's Noah. --Meghan DeMaria
