The Universal Pictures logo and the dramatic, epic-scale scenes of ancient battles and struggles.

The ad opens with the Universal Pictures logo, followed by the Syncopy logo. It then transitions to epic scenes of large groups of people in ancient attire, some pulling ropes across sand dunes, others in what appears to be a battle or struggle. There are shots of men in dark, confined spaces looking up in awe or fear, and a scene of a building engulfed in flames at night. The visuals shift to a desolate beach with scattered shipwrecks, then to a vast, empty landscape with a single figure walking. Another scene shows a massive whirlpool in the ocean, with a small ship approaching it. There are quick cuts of people running on a beach, a figure in a forest, and a group of people on a grassy hill overlooking the sea with ships. The ad concludes with title cards and release information.
