The Mummy Reboot Heading For The UK
They’re Only In It For The Mummy
According to trade film and TV website The Knowledge Online , Universal’s major new reboot of horror classic The Mummy is heading for a UK shoot, marking the launch of the studio’s new shared monsters universe.
The iconic Hollywood powerhouse was actually one of the first to introduce the idea of mixing characters from across different titles way back in the 1940s – an idea now known as a cinematic universe. Decades later, the concept is raking in millions at box offices around the world, with Marvel leading the charge with blockbuster titles such as Avengers: Age of Ultron and Ant-Man.
Prior to this point known as a screenwriter and producer, Alex Kurtzman will actually make his directorial debut on the feature, set in the present day, working from a screenplay by Jon Spaihts. Producers include Kurtzman, Sean Daniel and Roberto Orci.
