Short description

History's favorite Gauls assist Queen Cleopatra when she wagers that the Egyptian people can build a palace for Julius Caesar in just three months.

What's left behind the scenes

The film was shot over 126 days.
Filming took place in Malta, Morocco, and France.
After filming wrapped, the beautiful costumes worn by the lead actors were sold at a charity auction to benefit a children’s protection organization.
The meaning of some of the hieroglyphs shown in the film can be translated as follows: "If you are able to read this, you are an Egyptologist."
At the end of the film, a character named Otis installs elevators in the palace built by Numerobis. "Otis" is the name of a well-known elevator manufacturer.
The crocodiles in the opening scenes of the film were made of clay, stone, and wood, covered with a thick layer of plant-based paint.
The shot of Redbeard's pirates clinging to the wreckage of a destroyed ship is a parody of Théodore Géricault's famous painting "The Raft of the Medusa."
The movie was filmed over a period of 126 days.
