Based on the original ’60s French comic books by René Goscinny, Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra is the big-budget sequel to the 1999 box-office hit Astérix and Obélix vs. Caesar. Empress Cléopâtre makes a wager with Julius Caesar that her people can build a beautiful palace in three months. She chooses architect Numerobis for the project, which must be completed in time or he will be fed to the crocodiles. Numerobis travels to Gaul to get help from the superpowered Panoramix and the warriors Astérix and Obélix, along with their faithful pet Dogmatix. They use their magic potion to make the Egyptian slave-labor population into superheroes, thereby building the palace in no time. Meanwhile, the angry architect Amonbofis and Julius Caesar don’t want to see them succeed.
