New French and Indian war movie?


Apparently Brendan Fraser is set to shoot a new epic in the summer in Toronto. Called Four Kings the press release says
The historical drama Four Kings, about the Seven Years War during the 1700s, will shoot this summer in Toronto with Fraser playing Colonel Francis Nicholson, the Englishman who finances the war in order to create a utopian society in Canada.

I am a little confused by this widely reported press release. Francis Nicholson is someone earlier than the SYW and presumably the Four Kings of the title is a reference to the four Mohawk sachems who came to London in the 1700s... see here and here
