Brendan Fraser and Radio Silence have already started to promote the new Mummy sequel in the best way

Since the upcoming Mummy sequel was announced earlier this year, Brendan Fraser and the Radio Silence team have kicked off the franchise reboot in the most wholesome way – by riding The Mummy rollercoaster at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Universal Studios posted a picture of the outing on Instagram, showing Fraser and directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett on the rollercoaster, captioned, "Getting back into character! Brendan Fraser had a blast braving Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride at Universal Studios in preparation for reprising the role of Rick O’Connell."

The Mummy 4 is set to start filming this summer. Check out the post below.

Universal is keeping plot details under wraps, but we do know that the reboot will see Fraser and Rachel Weisz reprise their roles as adventurers turned lovers Rick and Evelyn O’Connell, with John Hannah also returning as Evelyn's older brother Jonathan Carnahan. Orphan: First Kill writer David Coggeshall is on board to pen the script.

The upcoming movie will act as a continuation of The Mummy franchise, which kicked off in 1999, followed by the 2001 sequel The Mummy Returns. There was a third film released in 2008 titled The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, but Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett have made it clear that the upcoming fourth movie will disregard the events of threequel as Weisz wasn't in it.

However, the upcoming film has a little bit of competition as, confusingly, another Mummy movie is set to hit screens this year. Lee Cronin's The Mummy will focus on the more horrific side of the Universal Monster following a family whose missing child returns to them years later, but something is not quite right with her. To be clear, Brendan Fraser is not in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy.

The Mummy 4 hits cinemas on May 19, 2028. Until then, here are the movie release dates coming your way soon.
