Brenton Thwaites has landed in a role in epic fantasy film Gods of Egypt.
The movie will see Thwaites team up with Gerard Butler, Geoffrey Rush and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, for one of the biggest movies of his career to date.
Alex Proyas will return to the director's chair for the film and has also penned the screenplay.
Butler will play the god of the desert, Set, who, according to Egyptian mythology, murders his own brother, Osiris.
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau has signed up for the part of Horus, the son of Osiris, who seeks revenge against his uncle.
Meanwhile, Rush will play the sun god, Ra, who is father to Butler's Set and the murdered Osiris.
Thwaites is a name to watch out for over the next year or so as the Aussie star some big movies in the pipeline.
He has already completed work on The Signal and Son of A Gun, and he is also set to take on the role of Prince Phillip in Maleficent, alongside Angelina Jolie.
Filming for 'Gods of Egypt' will begin next year in Australia.
