Brendan Fraser became a household name and Rachel Weisz got massive recognition for her role too. The first two movies were loved by fans, full of adventure, thrills, and romance. But the third movie with Tom Cruise didn\u2019t do well at the box office and many fans were disappointed. Now, there are talks about bringing the franchise back with a new movie.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"486\" data-end=\"1071\">The new movie won\u2019t be a reboot. It will follow the story after the second film and ignore the third one, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Empire. Universal is planning the project with directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, the duo behind the latest Scream films. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are reportedly in talks to return, although nothing has been confirmed yet. Fans are excited because Fraser\u2019s career got a big boost again after his Oscar-winning role in The Whale. Rachel Weisz is also still going strong, recently appearing in Black Widow as Melina Vostokoff.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1073\" data-end=\"1499\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">The first Mummy movie took place in the 1920s. Fraser played treasure hunter Rick, and Weisz played librarian Evie. Their adventure in Egypt led them to awaken a supernatural entity, and their chemistry on screen was unforgettable. Fans often say it was their connection that made the movies work so well. Now, everyone is waiting to see if this iconic duo will come back together and bring The Mummy magic to life once again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in 1999, The Mummy came out and it was a huge hit.
