Hammer series (1959–1971)

[edit]

In 1959, the franchise was rebooted, starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Though the title suggests Universal Pictures' 1932 film of the same title, the film actually derives its plot and characters entirely from two 1940s Universal films, The Mummy's Hand and The Mummy's Tomb, with the climax borrowed directly from The Mummy's Ghost. The character name Joseph Whemple, the use of a sacred scroll, and a few minor plot elements are the only connections with the 1932 version.

Originally a proposed remake of The Mummy would have been directed by horror filmmaker and writer Clive Barker. Barker's vision for the film was violent, with the story revolving around the head of a contemporary art museum who turns out to be a cultist trying to reanimate mummies.[1][2] Barker's take was "dark, sexual and filled with mysticism",[3] and that, "it would have been a great low-budget movie".[1]

In 1999, Stephen Sommers wrote and directed a remake of The Mummy, loosely based on the original film of 1932. This film switches genres from the emphasis on horror to action, concentrating more on adventure sequences, special effects, comedy, and a higher element of Egyptian lore. The film became a box office success spawning two sequels, several video games, a spin-off series, and an animated television series. The first two films received mixed to positive reviews, while the third one received mostly negative reviews.

After Tomb of the Dragon Emperor was released, actress Maria Bello stated that another Mummy film would "absolutely" be made, and that she had already signed on.[4] Actor Luke Ford was signed on for three films as well.[5] In 2012, Universal Pictures cancelled the film and later developed a reboot of the series.

In 2025, a fourth film was reported to be in development with Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett attached to direct and David Coggeshall writing. Fraser and Weisz are slated to reprise their roles.[6][7][8] In an interview made while promoting Rental Family, Brendan Fraser later mentioned it saying "the one I wanted to make...is forthcoming" and that it was time to "give the fans what they want".[9]

Jonathan Herman was attached to serve as screenwriter, with the plot taking place in modern-day and involving a contemporary adaptation of Mathayus of Akkad / Scorpion King. Dwayne Johnson was hired as producer alongside Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia. The project is a joint-venture production between Universal Pictures and Seven Bucks Productions.[17]

U.S. Army Sergeant Nick Morton, a soldier of fortune, accidentally unearths the ancient tomb of entrapped Egyptian princess Ahmanet. When she awakens from the tomb and unleashes the evils on the world, Nick teams up with allies to stop her.[18][19]

A reboot of the series, the film stars Tom Cruise,[20] Sofia Boutella,[21] Annabelle Wallis,[22] Russell Crowe and Jake Johnson.[23] Directed by Alex Kurtzman[24] and written by David Koepp, Christopher McQuarrie and Dylan Kussman (based on the story by Jon Spaihts[25]), the film was released in 2017.[26][27][28][29] Several directors and writers were attached to the project at one point, such as Len Wiseman,[30][31][32] Andy Muschietti,[33][34] and Billy Ray.[35]

The Mummy was originally developed as the first entry of the new shared universe franchise titled Dark Universe by Universal Pictures, who hired Alex Kurtzman and Chris Morgan to develop all classic movie monsters such as Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, Creature from the Black Lagoon, The Invisible Man, Bride of Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Van Helsing, and the Mummy.[36][37][38] The film, however, became a critical and commercial failure, causing all the future planned films in the Dark Universe to be cancelled.[39]

Other media

[edit]

Video games

[edit]

Two video game adaptations of The Mummy (1999) were developed by Rebellion Developments and published by Konami in 2000: an action adventure game for the PlayStation and PC[44] as well as a Game Boy Color puzzle game.[45] Dreamcast version was announced but later cancelled in the late 2000. The Mummy Returns was released in late 2001 for the PlayStation 2 and developed by Blitz Games and the Game Boy Color version was developed by GameBrains; both versions were published by Universal Interactive. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor was released in 2008, developed by Eurocom for the PlayStation 2 and the Wii, while the Nintendo DS version was developed by A2M; all versions were published by Sierra Entertainment. In March 2012, a massive multiplayer online game known as The Mummy Online was released. The Mummy Demastered and The Mummy: Dark Universe Stories, based on the film of The Mummy from 2017 were released in the same year.

The Mummy and characters from the franchise were featured in the video game, Funko Fusion, which was released in 2024.[46][47]

Comic books

[edit]

In May 2001, Chaos! Comics released the first of a three-issue series inspired by the film, titled The Mummy: Valley of the Gods.[48] The plot was supposed to take place between the first film and The Mummy Returns. Rick and Evelyn are on their honeymoon in Egypt and end up embarking on yet another adventure where they must unravel the mysteries of the Orb of Destiny and discover the location of the Valley of the Gods hidden beneath the sands. The second and third issues, however, were never published.[49] This was most likely due to Chaos later filing bankruptcy in 2002 and selling the rights to all their titles at that time. Years later in 2008, another Mummy comic series was released by IDW Publishing, spanning four issues. This series was titled The Mummy: The Rise and Fall of Xango's Ax. Unlike the preceding comic series, all of the planned issues were published.[50]

Television

[edit]

An animated series simply titled The Mummy was made by Universal Animation Studios where it was based on the Stephen Sommers series of films. The series was later renamed in the second season as The Mummy: Secrets of the Medjai. It aired between 2001 and 2003.

Theme park rides

[edit]

The film also inspired a roller coaster ride named Revenge of the Mummy in Universal Studios Theme Parks, Florida.[51] Similar rides can also be found in Hollywood and Singapore.[52] A mummy identified as Ankhsenamun appears in the Monsters Unchained: The Frankenstein Experiment ride at Universal Epic Universe.
