This is the story of the young Mathayus, and the events that led to his becoming the Scorpion King. As a carefree boy of 13, Mathayus witnessed his father (a renowned Akkadian mercenary-warrior) being kidnapped and murdered by a jealous rival, Sargon. Sent to train at the illustrious Order of the Black Scorpion academy, Mathayus spends the next seven years learning to become a fighting and killing machine—driven by his vow to one day avenge his father. Convinced his only hope of defeating Sargon and his growing power is by retrieving a charmed sword from the Underworld, Mathayus embarks on a perilous supernatural odyssey--accompanied by the tomboyish wannabe-warrior Layla, the aspiring Greek playwright Ari, a freed Chinese captive Fong, and a few other characters he meets and enlists along the way. At stake is not only the fate of the entire Akkadian nation but of Mathayus's very soul. Starring Karen David as 'Layla', Michael Copon as 'Mathayus', and Randy Couture as 'Sargon'. This is an exclusive screening of Universal Studios Home Entertainment's DVD Exclusive, The Scorpion King 2 Rise of a Warrior prior to its release onto DVD and Blu Ray Tuesday, August 19, 2008. "
