Excitement is building among fans of The Mummy franchise, as fresh rumors suggest a potential fourth installment could be in the works. Industry insiders hint that Universal Studios is in early discussions to revive the adventure series with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz reprising their iconic roles as Rick and Evelyn O’Connell.
The last film in the series, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008), featured Fraser but not Weisz, who was replaced by Maria Bello. Many fans considered the third film lacking the chemistry of the original duo. With Brendan Fraser’s career revitalized after his Oscar-winning performance in The Whale (2022), speculation is growing that Universal may be looking to reignite the franchise’s former glory by reuniting the beloved original cast.
Though no official confirmation has been made by the studio, fan anticipation is high, and a teaser or trailer could drop soon if talks progress. If true, The Mummy 4 could arrive in 2025 and mark a nostalgic return to the action-packed, supernatural storytelling that made the series a global hit.
