Tom Cruise stares down Sofita Boutella in a new image for The Mummy.
“They’re finally face-to-face,” teases director Alex Kurtzman to EW.com. “He’s realizing that he’s deeply, and desperately, cursed.”
Rgarding whether or not The Mummy will be a part of a shared movie monster universe, Kurtzman says, “The movie’s called The Mummy, not The Mummy Meets 12 Other Monsters. If we create a world that feels interesting and scary, then we will have succeeded in setting up the larger universe.”
See the image below.
The Mummy has a June 9, 2017 release directed by Alex Kurtzman also starring Annabelle Wallis, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance and Russell Crowe.
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 SecretService 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.
From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters.
