Universal Pictures just dropped the first trailer for The Mummy reboot starring Tom Cruise, and with it, a whole new world of gods and monsters.
The studio took to its social media handle to release the full action-packed trailer, captioned ‘She is real’, featuring star Tom Cruise in Ancient Egypt.
The reboot portrays an ancient princess (Sofia Boutella), who is awakened from her crypt beneath the desert, and brings malevolence and great terrors that endanger modern-day people.
“Please meet Princess Ahmanet,” says Russell Crowe’s character in the trailer, as the princess wreaks havoc over London.
“She will claim what she has been denied,” he declares.
Cruise even comes back to life suddenly after dying in a plane crash, perhaps to finish an impossible mission.
The previous Mummy franchise spanned four movies released between 1999 and 2008. They famously starred Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weiz, who will not be returning for the new film.
Also starring Courtney B. Vance, Annabelle Wallis, and Jake Johnson, the Alex Kurtzman directed flick will hit theatres in June next year.
