Universal’s The Mummy reboot promises a high-octane return to its world of monsters.
Led by Tom Cruise, the film is the first of a slated series of rebooted monster flicks, alongside Dracula, The Wolfman, Frankenstein, The Invisible Man, The Bride of Frankenstein, and Van Helsing, with an Avengers-style team-up movie also planned.
The Mummy is directed by Alex Kurtzman, who penned Mission Impossible III, with a screenplay by Prometheus-scribe Jon Spaihts, who also worked on Marvel’s Doctor Strange.
Plus, one of Tom Cruise’s screams looped over twice because what star needs more than two takes to nail a yell.
