“Pharaoh," short film, is about how a young new pharaoh must face down tradition and family in order to find her place as a ruler.
If you do not know what a Funko Pop! is, let me explain! They are Pop! Vinyl figurines, created by the company Funko Inc. Fans call them “Funko Pops!,” and each toy is based on a pop culture character. There are now over 13,741 different figures. These Pops! are enjoyed by people of all ages.
You are tasked with designing a Funko Pop! for a chosen pharaoh. You must conduct research on your pharaoh in order to create a series for your Pop!, a pharaoh biography, relevant accessories for your pharaoh, and design three other Pops! in the series. Use the Funko Pop! Pharaoh Project packet to help guide you in your project.

One of the most famous names of ancient Egypt is also one of the youngest: King Tutankhamen. Although King Tut only ruled for around ten years he is one of the most famous pharaohs today. The discovery of his tomb in 1922 captured the amazement of the world! Since his tomb was first found, King Tut’s strange, untimely death has become something of a historical mystery. Is there an answer to the ancient question: how and why did the young King Tutankhamen die??
