Is this true, or are you doing another?<\/p>\n<p>To which, the actor, who played Rick O&#8217;Connell nodded his head and said yes.<\/p>\n<p>To which the host added: \u201cYou are doing it! What do we know about it so far? Is there anything you&#8217;re allowed to tell?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fraser replied: \u201cWell, we&#8217;re going to get the band back together\u2026 The only way to do it, right? Yeah, of course. So we&#8217;re going to give the audience what they have been bothering all of us for the last 20 whatever years. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>Fallon questioned: \u201cDid you ever think they were going to do this?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The actor said he was \u201chopeful for a long while and then I was like, no, I don&#8217;t know if they are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, other Mummy movies got made. And anyway, look, what we&#8217;re going to do is saddle back up, go back to the locations. I should probably stop talking like this. However, I know that. Please wish me luck. I&#8217;m doing my best to get this 57-year-old gear in shape.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The clip was captioned: \u201cBrendan Fraser and the original cast of The Mummy are returning for its fourth installment! #FallonTonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mummy was directed by Stephen Sommers. It stars Fraser, Rachel Weisz, John Hannah, and Arnold Vosloo.<\/p>\n<p>The Mummy follows adventurer and treasure hunter Rick O&#8217;Connell as he travels to Hamunaptra, the City of the Dead, with librarian Evelyn Carnahan and her older brother Jonathan, where they accidentally awaken Imhotep, a cursed high priest with supernatural powers.<\/p>\n<p>Source: IANS<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Brendan Fraser quips about getting his \u201857-year-old gear\u2019 in shape for new \u2018Mummy\u2019 film\" alt=\"Brendan Fraser quips about getting his \u201857-year-old gear\u2019 in shape for new \u2018Mummy\u2019 film\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1778148731_10_ba9d209f7408d31c02bd9313ef807db249a6fcf24f993220eed41724683faf09.png\"  class=\"wp-biographia-avatar avatar-100 photo\" height=\"100\" width=\"100\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"2994239693\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"\/>About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.socialnews.xyz\/author\/gopi\/\" title=\"Gopi\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gopi<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gopi Adusumilli is a Programmer.
