 How to Fix God's of Egypt 

what if Gods of Egypt had been directed by a renowned Black/African American or Middle Eastern filmmaker such as Ryan Coogler, Antoine Fuqua, Spike Lee, Gina Prince-Bythewood, Adil El Arbi, Bilall Fallah, Tim Story, or Kenya Barris instead of Alex Proyas, featuring a diverse and authentic cast of Black/African American, British, Middle Eastern, Egyptian, and North African actors instead of white actors, like Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Chadwick Boseman (in tribute), Idris Elba, John Boyega, Thandiwe Newton, Rami Malek, Mena Massoud, and Sofia Boutella, all bringing depth and cultural resonance to the portrayal of Egyptian gods and mortals. The film’s soundtrack could fuse American hip-hop, R&B, and soul with Middle Eastern and Egyptian pop influences, featuring artists like Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, SZA, Alicia Keys, Chris Brown, Wegz, Marwan Moussa, and Afroto, with potential collaborations such as Mohamed Mounir with Kendrick Lamar or Nancy Ajram with The Weeknd, crafting a rich and immersive soundscape that enhances the film’s themes. With cinematography embracing vibrant colors, intricate costume and set designs that honor Egyptian mythology, and a score composed by Ludwig Göransson or Terence Blanchard, the film could explore profound themes of identity, power, loyalty, redemption, and self-discovery, striking a balance between action, drama, and humor while celebrating African, Middle Eastern, and Egyptian cultures and talent. A reimagined Gods of Egypt could rectify the 2016 film’s issues, such as whitewashing, historical inaccuracies, and underdeveloped storytelling, while improving CGI, action sequences, dialogue, and pacing under the direction of filmmakers experienced in cultural epics. A marketing strategy emphasizing cultural authenticity, a diverse cast and crew, stunning visuals, and dynamic action sequences could position the film as a critically acclaimed, culturally resonant epic that sparks discussions on representation, mythology, and heritage, inspiring future filmmakers to embrace and explore their cultural narratives while redefining diversity and inclusivity in the fantasy and epic genres.
