6 Nov - Good news, Rick O'Connell fans everywhere. It looks like the treasure hunter and his wife Evelynn will be returning to the big screen.

It was reported that Universal is bringing back "The Mummy" to life, with original stars Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz currently in talks to reprise their roles as the treasure hunter and Egyptologist.

The film reportedly will be helmed by Radio Silence team of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who helmed the 2019 hit horror flick, "Ready or Not".

The last Brendan Fraser-starring

The 1999 movie, directed by Stephen Sommers, follows adventurer and treasure hunter Rick O'Connell as he travels to the City of the Dead, with Evelyn Carnahan and her older brother Jonathan, where they accidentally awaken Imhotep, a cursed high priest with supernatural powers.

The movie spawned two more sequels, before it was rebooted in 2017 starring Tom Cruise. However, the new film was panned by both critics and the public.
