Ben Kingsley to Become Another Man of Power in ‘Night at the Museum 3’

Briefly: I know many of you out there are dying to see Night at the Museum 3 but it doesn’t come out until Christmas so please calm down.  The Shawn Levy directed sequel features an all-star cast including Rebel Wilson, Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Steve Coogan and Ricky Gervais, but now we can add another major name to the line-up who is set to also have a significant role in the film, and that man is the great Ben Kingsley.

According to Deadline, “Kingsley will play a formidable Egyptian pharaoh on display in the British museum, and he is revived by a magical tablet.”

This seems like it’ll be real fun for Kingsley and after his awesome performance as The Mandarin in Iron Man 3, I’m down for more comedic turns from the terrific actor.
