Universal has released the second trailer for their reboot of The Mummy, starring Tom Cruise as an adventurer who unleashes the power of ancient evil. There is some backstory given for Sofia Boutella‘s monster, and vague inferences about her desire to conquer the world once awoken. The new take on the classic villain looks like it blends action with horror elements nicely.
The Mummy is directed by Alex Kurtzman and also stars Russell Crowe, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance, and Annabelle Wallis. It will be in theaters on June 9th.
Tom Cruise headlines a spectacular, all-new cinematic version of the legend that has fascinated cultures all over the world since the dawn of civilization: The Mummy.
Thought safely entombed in a tomb deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient princess (Sofia Boutella of Kingsman: The Secret Service and Star Trek Beyond) whose destiny was unjustly taken from her is awakened in our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.
