It had Brendan Fraser being Brendan Fraser, and that's always a plus.

Bro what? The first two movies were absolute classics. This has to be rage bait.

How? You said "these movies", not "the upcoming movie"

If its Fraser and Weisz? They have some of the best on screen chemistry I've seen. As long as the writing is good, it will surely be elevated by the performances.

Are you kidding? The Mummy was such an amazing movie. Fun, smart, fast paced, string make and female leads. Tons of people loved this film.

Millennials who grew up with these movies are very excited for this next installment. Yes, they are “old” at this point but, having rewatched them recently the first 2 Mummy movies are still very enjoyable to watch. If you haven’t watched them, why don’t you give them a chance rather than sounding like a salty sally?

The son exists in the second movie? So yes he will.

British son, canon. American accent older son, does not exist. Presumably, I can only speculate they'll make the boy a bit british again
