Forget the quips and the desert adventures of the past. Warner Bros. has officially unveiled a new look at The Mummy, and writer-director Lee Cronin (Evil Dead Rise) is steering the franchise straight into the abyss.
A Terrifying Homecoming
The story sees a journalist whose life was destroyed when her daughter vanished in the desert. Eight years later, the girl miraculously reappears, but she hasn’t come back alone. The “creature” here isn’t a CGI monster in a tomb; it’s the unsettling, ancient force living inside a child.
The Horror Pedigree
Produced by the “Holy Trinity” of modern horror—James Wan, Jason Blum, and Lee Cronin—the film boasts an elite cast including Jack Reynor (Midsommar), Laia Costa (The Wheel of Time), May Calamawy (Moon Knight), and Verónica Falcón (Ozark).
A New Clip: “The Sarcophagus”
A new clip has been released, offering a fresh look at the terror that awaits us. The footage, however, makes one thing clear: resurrection comes with a price, and sometimes, the cost is too high.
Cronin is poised to deliver a “creeping terror” that gets under your skin and stays there. Get wrapped up in The Mummy when it arrives in theaters on April 17, 2026. Brace yourself—this homecoming is going to be terrifying!
