A reboot of the popular 90's movie franchise, "The Mummy," which featured the adventures of archaeologist Rick O'Connell, played by Brendan Fraser, will be released soon. However, Fraser will no longer play the lead as "Edge of Tomorrow's" Tom Cruise has taken over. Other details and the trailer tease for the movie have just been revealed.
While Brendan Fraser's version of "The Mummy" was comical and adventurous with a hint of creepy, the reboot starring Tom Cruise is said to be creepier. There is also a major difference in the upcoming reboot - the villain is a female mummy, as opposed to the original one, played by Arnold Vosloo.
"The Mummy" tells of a story of an ancient queen, played by Sofia Boutella, who believed that it wasn't her time to go. She was placed in a tomb, which is found in a crypt beneath the desert. Fast forward to the present day, this queen woke up and is determined to unleash terror. Tom Cruise plays globetrotting Nick Morton, also a Navy SEAL that hunts down terrorists, who will need all the help he can get to vanquish this modern-day evil.
The new teaser for "The Mummy" reboot only takes 15 minutes of your time but it gives a sneak peek to the action that's bound to happen. "The Nice Guys'" Russell Crowe, who plays Henry Jekyll, is also part of the cast and he had given a comment about the movie in a previous interview. Crowe told Collider that the reboot was "designed to seriously scare the s--t out of you."
Also on board for "The Mummy" reboot are Annabelle Wallis, Jake Johnson and Courtney Vance. The reboot is included in Universal's Monsters Universe franchise. Alex Kurtzman directed the movie, which will hit theaters on June 8, 2017. This should be an exciting adventure movie to watch. Stay tuned to GamenGuide to get more updates!
