Get ready for a thrilling revelation! The cast of the iconic horror film, The Mummy (1999), has expressed their eagerness to reunite for another thrilling adventure. But here's the twist: will it ever happen?
The Mummy's Legacy Continues
Last year, an industry insider, Daniel Richtman, dropped a bombshell (https://www.patreon.com/posts/mummy-104982334) by revealing that Universal had three Mummy projects in the works, one being a direct sequel to the Brendan Fraser-led franchise. With Fraser's recent career resurgence, including an Oscar win, fans have been eagerly anticipating his return to the Mummy universe.
The Mummy trilogy, consisting of The Mummy (1999), The Mummy Returns, and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, left a lasting impact on audiences. While there were plans for a fourth installment, The Mummy: Rise of the Aztec, it was ultimately shelved in favor of the ill-fated Dark Universe reboot. Since then, we've been left wondering about the future of this beloved franchise.
A Reunion to Remember
This year, several cast members from The Mummy have come together at various events, including Fan Expo Denver, where Brendan Fraser, Oded Fehr, Patricia Velásquez, and John Hannah reunited. They're set to reunite once again at Twin Cities Con in Minneapolis, joined by Corey Johnson. These reunions have sparked excitement among fans, leaving them eager for more.
During an interview with JoBlo's Tyler Nichols, Oded Fehr, who played the enigmatic Ardeth Bay, confirmed that the cast of the 1999 film would be delighted to return for another sequel. When asked about the possibility of The Mummy 4, Fehr couldn't provide a definitive answer but expressed his hopes and the cast's enthusiasm.
The Cast's Enthusiasm
Fehr shared, "If there's a chance it will be profitable, they'll give it a shot. Like you, I hope we get another chance to do this. I can assure you that we'd all be thrilled to do it again. Reuniting with everyone would be a blessing. It's a joy to work with such wonderful people."
