This lead to a new slate of films planned for a revamped line of Universal Monsters.
If 2017’s reboot of The Mummy had worked out the way Universal Pictures had planned, the so called Dark Universe that the Tom Cruise film was supposed to have launched would still be moving forward with its original slate.
With a Bride of Frankenstein adaptation starring Angelina Jolie, an Invisible Man project starring Johnny Depp, and probably another film involving Cruise and his Mummy co-star Russell Crowe all previously on the books, a grand vision of darkness was originally hatched, but never fulfilled.
