Summer 2017 is shaping up to be one of the biggest, most diverse blockbuster seasons ever. Universal Pictures will be not only be competing against the major comic book franchises with Fast 8, but it will also kick off its shared monsters universe with Alex Kurtzman’s reboot of The Mummy. The reboot which stars Tom Cruise and Sofia Boutella (Kingsman, Star Trek Beyond) has swapped the charming era of the 1930’s for a darker, modern day setting.
Along with the official poster, Universal has dropped a trailer teaser for the upcoming film announcing the first official trailer will arrive this Sunday, December 4th.
The Mummy hits theaters June 9, 2017.
Starring Tom Cruise, Sofia Boutella, Jake Johnson, Annabelle Wallis, Courtney B. Vance and Russel Crowe. Written by John Spaihts. Directed by Alex Kurtzman.
Believed to be safely entombed in a crypt deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient queen (Sofia Boutella), whose destiny was unjustly taken from her, is awakened in our current day, bringing malevolence with her that has grown over millennia.
