  • Possible Plot Details for THE MUMMY Remake Revealed



    After seeing what Universal Pictures did to Dracula in Dracula: Untold, I'm not really all that excited about what they plan on doing with the rest of their monster franchises. The studio is creating a connected universe for all of these creatures, and they aren't really off to a good start. That movie was retroactively fit into this universe.

    The next movie they release in the series will be The Mummy, which is being directed by Alex Kurtzman. Up until this point we've known very little about the direction that they are going to take the movie, but some rumored plot details have surfaced at Superhero Movie News. This gives us a sense of what we could expect to see.

    The story follows Navy Seal Tyler Colt and his mission in the Iraqi dessert to find a group of terrorists hiding out in a bunker. To him and his teams[sic] surprise the terrorists within the bunker turn out be nothing more then[sic] some grave robbers who have all magically died. Upon entering the bunker Tyler and his team also succumb to some mystical forces out of their control. They soon realize the bunker they have infiltrated is actually a centuries old tomb. Mayhem erupts as all the Navy seal members start turning on one another and are captivated by the forces within the tomb. Tyler is the only one to make it all the way deep within the tomb alive to find an Black Iron Sarcophagus[sic]. It’s marked with Egyptian symbols like the Ankh and Eye of Horus. Here Tyler is entranced by the forces to open up and release what is inside. But after placing his hand onto the sarcophagus he is immediately stabbed in the palm with a star shaped symbol. From then on his mind is cursed with visions of Ashurbanipal, King of Assyria…..The Mummy.

    I'm not really sure what this all means. Is this Colt character the Mummy, or is he just a vessel? I assume the military is going to play a larger role in the story, but who knows? I hope this isn't true, because I'm not really feeling it. It just doesn't sound like it would make for a great Mummy film. In my opinion this should be a story set in the 1930s, but that's not going to happen. What do you think of these possible story details?

    The movie is currently set to be released June 24th, 2016
