Tom Cruise would star in the reboot of The Mummy for Universal

Universal plans to create a special division of monsters that work similarly to the Marvel Cinematic Universe with different films that entrecruzarían, but placing classic creatures as The Mummy, Frankenstein, Dracula , etc. in place of superheroes. 

In this line, there have been rumors that Tom Cruise would star in a revival of The Mummy , Imhotep Egyptian priest returned from the grave to which he gave life Boris Karloff in an adaptation of the story of Richard Schayer made ​​in 1932 by Karl Freund, and He returned at the hands of Stephen Sommers humorously with the role of Brendan Fraser in the late nineties and had a sequel in 2001 and again in 2008. As confirmed by Variety, Jon Spaihts ( Prometheus ) is developing the script to be held in our time, unlike previous films that were located in the interwar period. 

The character I could play Cruise would be the adventurer who chases the monster, as a modern reinterpretation of Rick O'Connell who gave life to Fraser, who turn was inspired by the Indiana Jones Harrison Ford. Deadline, meanwhile, he refuted these gossip ensuring that Universal and the actor's representatives have denied that there is no negotiation for the film . Cruise is filming Jack Reacher: Never Go Back and August next year will embark on Mission: Impossible 6 so that their agenda would be too full to start a new franchise. 

The Mummy has had more adaptations besides those shown in both film productions minor, to the small screen or video games and theme park rides.
