The Mummy marks the official beginning the Universal Monsters Cinematic Universe: similar to Marvel’s Cinematic Universe but starring numerous famous literary deviants instead of superheroes.
The studio has debuted the second trailer, which shows off Cruise’s super-human abilities and sees London once again get destroyed.
No wonder, then, Universal Pictures are keen to snatch up some publicity for their upcoming The Mummy remake, which stars Tom Cruise, Peaky Blinders actor Annabelle Wallis, and Sofia Boutella as the titular character.
Oh, and Luke Evans’s Dracula Untold is maybe/maybe not part of the series. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves: we’ve got The Mummy first.
