Elizabeth Taylor as CleopatraThe beautiful and powerful Egyptian queen Cleopatra will make her way to a television series, directed by our very own Shekhar Kapur.

According to the Daily Mail, this version of Cleopatra will not depict her as a seductress, who had affairs with Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony, but instead will see a better and more intelligent ruler than the men on her times.

Kapur is well known to Hollywood, having directed Cate Blanchett in the two Elizabeth movies -- Elizabeth and The Golden Age -- and also Heath Ledger in The Four Feathers.
