There's a new Mummy movie on the way from the director of Evil Dead Rise and I just want to know if Blumhouse has called Brendan Fraser yet
Le🦩e Cronin's The Mummy is slated for a 2026 release

A new Mum☂my movie is on the way from Evil Dead Rise director Lee Cronin - but I'm not getting on board until Brendan Fraser sign🐈s a contract.
The up👍coming pic is being produced by Blumhouse and Atomic Monster, which will be put out by New Line Cinema.
"This will be unlike any Mummy movie you ever laid eyeballs on before. I'm digging deep into the earth to 🐼raise something very ancient and ve🌱ry frightening," Cronin said in a statement.
Crꦰonin helmed Evil Dead Rise, Evil Dead Rise, which hit theaters 2023 and effectively re-launched the Evil Dead franchise, earning rave reviews and grossing $147 million against a budget of $14 mil♈lion.
You might remember, however, that Universal attempted🌱 a Mummy reboot starring Tom Cruise in 2017, which made about $410 million against a budget of $195 million and was so negatively received by critics that it canceled Universal's plans for a new 🌠"Dark Universe" based on the original Universal Classic Monsters. Weirdly enough, Wolf Man, from Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell, is due out from Universal in 2025 but is also being produced by Blumhouse. I'm only slightly confused.

Fans have already begun writing in their support for Fraser, who starred in 1999's The Mummy - which skyrocketed him to fa🦋me and also starred the incomparable Rachel Weisz.
"Brendan Fraser i꧋s all what we’re asking for," in response to the news of the new film.
