In an ancient time, predating the pyramids, the evil king Memno(Steven Brand)n is using the psychic powers of his sorceress Cassandra(Kelly Hu) to fortell his great victories. In a last ditch effort to stop Memnon from taking over the world, the leaders of the remaining free tribes hire the assassin Mathayus(Dwayne Johnson) to kill the sorceress. But Mathayus ends up getting much more than he bargained for. Now with the help of the trickster Arpid(Grant Heslov), tribal leader Balthazar(Michael Clarke Duncan) and an unexpected ally, it's up to Mathayus to fufill his destiny and become the great Scorpion King.
