π½ Plot Overview:
Long before recorded history, ancient Sumerian texts spoke of the Anunnaki β powerful beings said to have descended from the heavens and shaped mankind. In ANUNNAKI (2025), these legends become terrifying reality when a team of archaeologists uncovers a sealed underground temple in Iraq β and awakens something no human was meant to disturb.
Dr. Lena Khalid (Rebecca Ferguson), a linguistic expert in ancient Mesopotamian lore, deciphers a warning etched in stone: βThey shall return to reclaim what was once theirs.β
Moments later, a chain of catastrophic events begins around the world β electromagnetic storms, vanishing satellites, and strange celestial alignments. Soon, Earth is plunged into a global crisis as the Anunnaki, god-like extraterrestrials, return with advanced technology and a singular purpose: to reassert control over their former creation β humanity.
With time running out, a group of scientists, soldiers, and skeptics must unite to uncover the forgotten truth of mankindβs originsβ¦ and decide whether to serve, resist, or vanish under the rule of ancient gods.
