‘The Mummy’ Is Getting A Reboot
Universal Pictures is planning to reboot The Mummy franchise, and they have brought Jon Spaihts (Prometheus) onboard to write.
Spaihts says, “I see it as the sort of opportunity I had with Prometheus. To go back to a franchise’s roots in dark, scary source material, and simultaneously open it up to an epic scale we haven’t seen before.”
The Mummy was originally released in 1932, with four sequels and one spoof film following. In 1999, Stephen Sommers’ remade the film, which started its own trilogy as well as a spinoff trilogy for The Scorpion King.
I don’t know how I feel about this. The 1999 one was AWESOME in my opinion.
The first one was amazing. I completely agree! 🙂
im right there with ya. first one was awesome. the other two were just ok. and the scorpion king i dont even count, that seemed more of a joke it was so bad. with they would stop with the remakes and come up with something original
