Welcome to a new world of gods and monsters…

Universal Pictures has just unwrapped the full trailer for The Mummy, the first (it has been confirmed that Dracula Untold is not canon) of the revived Universal Monsters universe that’s set for release on June 9, 2017.

The trailer opens with a bang, showing Tom Cruise attempting to survive a massive plane crash that looks like something out of a Mission Impossible movie. He survives, somehow, and is now wrapped up in a mystery surrounding a female mummy that looks pretty badass (she’s a huge step up from Imhotep). As for Cruise, I’ve always been a huge fans of his and don’t believe he would have agreed to be part of this movie if it weren’t at least cool on paper (who knows what Alex Kurtzman will do with it). I quite like the adventure qualities of the Brendan Fraser The Mummy from 1999 and sort of hope that, while this one is pegged as “scary”, it’s also a lot of fun.

Here’s the full trailer, while you’ll find a ton of hi-res imagery at the bottom of the story. Subscribe to our YouTube channel for all of our trailers and clips.

“Tom Cruise headlines a spectacular, all-new cinematic version of the legend that has fascinated cultures all over the world since the dawn of civilization: The Mummy.

Thought safely entombed in a crypt deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient queen (Sofia Boutella of Kingsman: The Secret Service and Star Trek Beyond) whose destiny was unjustly taken from her is awakened in our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.

From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters.”

Cruise is joined by a cast including Annabelle Wallis (Annabell, King Arthur, Peaky Blinders), Jake Johnson (Jurassic World), Russell Crowe and Courtney B. Vance (TV’s American Crime Story: The People V. O.J. Simpson).

The creative team on this action-adventure event is led by director/producer Alex Kurtzman and producer Chris Morgan, who have been instrumental in growing some of the most successful franchises of the past several years—with Kurtzman writing or producing entries in the Transformers, Star Trek and Mission: Impossible series, and Morgan being the narrative engineer of the Fast & Furious saga as it has experienced explosive growth from its third chapter on.  Sean Daniel, who produced the most recent Mummy trilogy, produces alongside Kurtzman and Morgan.
