‘The Mummy’ New Trailer Reveals More of Sofia Boutella’s Terrifying Monster

The cast of “The Mummy” unveiled a new trailer for the upcoming action-packed reboot at Universal’s CinemaCon presentation on Wednesday.

The trailer, action-packed and genuinely terrifying, opens with three scavengers who discover an old prison, where the story of Sofia Boutella’s mummy is revealed. We find out that in Ancient Egypt, she was supposed to become the next Pharaoh, “but her thirst for power led her down a dark path.”

Somehow Tom Cruise’s character resurfaces the mummy and is taken on a dangerous adventure alongside Jake Johnson and Annabelle Wallis. There are a lot of creepy crawlies, just like in the original movies. Boutella’s mummy meanwhile keeps popping up to terrorize the heroes in creative ways.

“She won’t stop until she makes our world her own,” says a voiceover in the trailer.

At the CinemaCon presentation, Boutella told audiences that “playing a monster was really interesting to me, but also the fact that the mummy was a woman. Whenever something happens, there’s always a monster within us.”

Jon Spaihts wrote the script, with Alex Kurtzman directing and producing alongside Chris Morgan and Sean Daniel. Russell Crowe and Courtney B. Vance also star.
