Set 5,000 years ago in the infamous city of Gomorrah, "The Scorpion King" is a head-on confrontation between good and evil. Warlord Memmon (Brand) has created a reign of terror across the desert using a sorceress (Hu), who envisions all his victories. Only a few free tribes remain and in order to defeat Memmon they reluctantly hire Mathayus (The Rock) to kill the beautiful sorceress. Instead, he kidnaps her to lure Memmon into a trap. With the help of the leader of the free tribe, Balthazar (Academy Award®-nominee Michael Clarke Duncan), and an unlikely accomplice, the stage is set for the ultimate showdown.
