What Happened To Katie? Some things are meant to stay buried as the new trailer and poster for Lee Cronin’s The Mummy escape from the sarcophagus!
Lock up your bandages, The Mummy is on the loose again! Hot off the record-setting resurrection of Evil Dead Rise, writer/director Lee Cronin turns to one of the most iconic horror stories of all time with an audacious, twisted retelling: Lee Cronin’s The Mummy. This reimagining of the franchise is shambling its way into cinemas on April 17th. Jack Reynor, the Irish actor, takes the lead in this new version. It is set in the modern day. Also featuring Laia Costa, Verónica Falcón, and May Calamawy, the film looks to be a frightening, twisted version of the classic tale. As you can see from the new trailer and poster, released today, the film looks set to put the scares into summer. Take a new look below. And mind the Scarab beetle, if you can.
THE PREMISE
A journalist’s young daughter vanishes into the desert without a trace. Eight years later, her broken family faces an unthinkable shock when she returns. What should be a joyful reunion quickly spirals into a living nightmare.
The film stars Jack Reynor, Laia Costa, May Calamawy, Natalie Grace, and Veronica Falcón. Cronin wrote and directed the film, while James Wan, Jason Blum, and John Keville produced it. The executive producers are Michael Clear, Judson Scott, Macdara Kelleher and Lee Cronin.
BEHIND THE CAMERA
Lee Cronin collaborates with an impressive team of talented filmmakers, including director of photography Dave Garbett, production designer Nick Bassett, editor Bryan Shaw, costume designer Joanna Eatwell, composer Stephen McKeon, and casting directors Terri Taylor and Sarah Domeier Lindo.
After his simply brilliant Evil Dead Rise, Lee Cronin is the perfect choice to write and direct a new version of The Mummy. His keen eye, talent for frightening the audience, and brilliant directing should guarantee a frightening experience at the movies. Just the creepy, chilling and occasionally gory new look at the trailer should be enough to put us on edge. Could this be the horror film of the year? It looks like it could be.
