Check out The Mummy Returns 25th anniversary trailer for the upcoming theatrical re-release of the sequel to the 1999 action film, The Mummy. The Mummy Returns stars Brendan Fraser (as Rick O’Connell) and Rachel Weisz (as Evelyn).
Set 10 years after the events of the first film, The Mummy Returns picks up in 1933 with the swashbuckling heroes now married and living in London. Parents to eight-year-old Alex (Freddie Boath), the couple brings the boy along to their Egyptian expeditions, where they inadvertently uncover a rare artifact, the Bracelet of Anubis. The piece once belonged to a fearsome warrior known as the Scorpion King (Dwayne Johnson in his feature film debut) and can be used to command his army of jackal-like fighters.
Back in London, trouble begins after the bracelet locks onto Alex’s wrist, just as a cult planning to resurrect the powerful mummy Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo), kidnaps Evelyn. Suddenly, father and son are forced to undertake a dangerous rescue mission alongside Evelyn’s spoiled brother (John Hannah), one that pits them against Meela Nais (Patricia Velasquez). The physical reincarnation of Imhotep’s ancient lover, she hopes Imhotep will defeat the Scorpion King in battle, thereby conquering the world.
Dodging all manner of unimaginable threats—death-defying chases, merciless hand-to-hand combat, even ritual sacrifice—the O’Connell family bravely fights to save the globe, and one another, from certain destruction.
The Mummy Returns, directed by Stephen Sommers, returns to US theaters on March 27, 2026 for a very special limited engagement.
