I did a bit of research on the look of Egyptian gods, goddesses and pharaohs...see what you think. Egyptian gods, goddesses and pharaohsThis is all from authentic art work, much of which remains. Maybe CGI will put some sort of headgear on him so that is why he didn't grow his hair out? I do like the bare-chested towel wrap look for Gerry! Let's go with that people and designer sandals would be just the right touch, I think!

We'll probably all be very surprised with what they do with the mythology in this film. Now that it's been mentioned, I can envision them CGing the jackal head on Gerry. They can also darken up the skin in CGI. Gerry using just body movements to play Set? He can show so many emotional feelings and reactions with his face alone...me no likey... Hathor's headdress or crown was actually sitting on top of her head...the sun disk with the 2 horns, so that might be one way they will show Set's headpiece. I don't think they would give away very much from these latest pics. Guess they figured they were safe to show the public.

I have another question...it said they were filming in Centennial Park yesterday. I know they filmed outdoors there but this looked like it was filmed in the studio. Is the studio also at Centennial Park?

I really think GOE is going to use the same type of CGI effects as were used in the movie Stargate, when it comes to the head dressings here is the old trailer check out the special effects at 1min 50 second mark, m.youtube.com/watch?v=yd_C8YE99Eo

Is the studio also at Centennial Park? Fox Studios are just near Centennial Park. They were using a blue screen on the outdoor shooting that we saw previously, so its a bit hard to tell. Sydney has had a very balmy Autumn with quite a bit of sunshine.

Can you believe how much he has changed? Back to CGI, I think you are right!

I just can't imagine they would use blue screen out of doors, what would be the purpose of that?

I'm wondering if those set pics being allowed might mean that filming has finished for Gerry? It's late Saturday night here and no sightings so far this weekend which is a bit unusual.

So,just one more day of GOE filming for Gerry www.facebook.com/filmmotel?fref=nfWe visited Kimble (Rendall - 2nd Unit Director of the biggest special effects film to come out of Australia/The World/The Galaxy) on set at Fox Studios to watch one of the many stunts for 'Gods of Egypt'. Blue screens and Pyramids galore!! Amazing to see Kimble working - and then see Gerard Butler's and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's faces superimposed immediately on the monitor. Kimble has another 6 weeks of shooting to go. Gerard Butler's last day of shooting is tomorrow.

Thanks for the news Elenoire- I am not sure if I am happy or sad to hear this news. Happy that Gerry doesn't have to rush back for filming after HTTYD2 Premiere and PR interviews but sad we won't be seeing any more photos of Gerry in Australia. I think we are going to have to REALLY enjoy the press tour for HTTYD2 because it may be months before we see Gerry on his next movie, which I think is LHF Now we wait to see how this movie comes out! 2016 YIKES! too long to wait!

IF you look at recent HW films that depict ancient Gods ( Percy Jackson, Clash of the Titans) they dress them in armor even if it's inaccurate to the historical time period it's supposedly taking place. Maybe it is covering the gamut of the beginning of God worship to the end of when the Roman's and Greeks took over. Could be he looks different at the beginning and ended up looking like a Roman in the end. JMHO

That's such interesting reading Lily...so much history and many dynasties. Thank you! I'd like to know in which era GOE is set (no not Set the god). I wonder if they worshipped the old gods during the reign of the Ptolemies? I love Egyptology and from what I have read. The Father of Tut, Akhenaten believed in one god The Sun God. After he died and I can't rem how they went back to being pagans and worshiped many gods. Really racking my brain on this one.

So the entire movie is wrapped, I thought that news about it being Gerry's last day of filming today meant that only he was done. He looks great and happy in that photo. Since the movie has wrapped, I wonder if he will shave for the premiere and his TV appearance or he will keep the beard. Looking pretty hot in that photo - maybe we will see the beard
