Hey this actually looks like a horror movie now!
Every Monday leading up to the June 9th release of director Alex Kurtzman’s The Mummy has been dubbed #MummyMondays by the folks over on Syfy Wire; they’re celebrating the start of each week with a new featurette that digs into the Universal reboot. This week’s vid, titled “Meet the Mummy,” is all about the title character, and it’s loaded with badass new footage.
Featuring interviews with Sofia Boutella, Tom Cruise and Alex Kurtzman, the featurette gives us a closer look at the various stages the female monster will go through. Check it out below!
Thought safely entombed in a crypt deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient queen 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.
The cast also includes Annabelle Wallis (Annabelle), Jake Johnson (Jurassic World), Russell Crowe and Courtney B. Vance (TV’s “American Crime Story: The People V. O.J. Simpson”).
