Brendan Fraser & Rachel Weisz In Talks To Return For New 'Mummy' Movie From Universal; Radio Silence To Direct
Universal Pictures is returning to one of its most beloved action-adventure franchises, with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz in discussions to return for a new Mummy movie, presumably reprising their roles from the studio's Mummy films of the '90s and 2000s, multiple sources tell Deadline.
