Fate is not what you are given. It is what you take.

vizier: if you are to join the gods, my king, i just want to say that you have saved egypt from all her enemies

tut: maybe the real enemy is the friends we made along the way

TutxSuhad- Wedding Day

[lmhayes19]

My favorite on screen Pharoah

So I'm watching the Ten Commandments as I usually do the night before Easter. For the longest, Yul Brynner playing as Rameses was my favorite movie/tv pharaoh of all time. But then, last July, Avan Jogia as King Tut happened. My life and my ovaries have never been the same since. Still love Yul Brynner and Charlton Heston. They're classic.

If for some explainable reason you have not watched the Tut miniseries, make it your New Years resolution to watch it. Believe me, you will have a good year. Lol

3 months later and I'm still watching the Tut miniseries on a regular basis. Spike really should have turned it into a full series and save me from this agony.

On casting their young pharaoh …

DVA: Avan was 22 when we were shooting and had this [great] presence of mind. But more importantly, he was always up for the work. There was a moment when we had 65 stunt guys [on set]. They’d been looking askance of Avan; you know, he’s a kid. But then he fell and cut his hand pretty nicely. Avan put a Band-Aid on it, finished the scene, and had the medic sew his hand up while he was eating lunch—with no anesthetic. And from that moment on, the stunt guys had a great respect for him. He was one of them.

MV: I credit Avan on so many levels, because he didn't just come there to read the lines and do the part. He really immersed himself in Tut. And we just constantly felt blessed that we had the right guy.

What a champ! They really did pick the right person to play Tut. Avan has ruined me for all other possible future Tut’s out there. Who am I kidding? He has ruined me for all other Pharaohs.
