Description

With Brendan Fraser back in the limelight following his Oscar win for The Whale, many are hoping that the beloved actor returns for one final instalment of the franchise that made him a star, The Mummy. Indeed, there were plans many years ago for a fourth film, which was to be called The Mummy: Rise of the Aztec, but those plans quickly evaporated when The Mummy: Tomb of the Golden Emperor, flopped at the box office. The film, had it happened, might have starred Arnold Schwarzenegger as the titular Mummy, and likely would have been direct dby the third film’s Rob Cohen. In this instalment of WTF Happened to this Unmade Movie, which is written by Brian Accardo, narrated by Bronwyn Kelly, and edited by John Nguyen, we dig into this never-realized epic. We also ask whether or not a new Mummy movie, which preferably would see Rachel Weisz return (after being replaced by Maria Bello for the third film) along with original director Stephen Sommers, could ever happen.

Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, many films had such behind the scenes issues that we will discuss in our shows. We'll also delve into the lives of some Hollywood folk who seemed to have disappeared after striking it big at first. Either way, we have to ask: WTF Happened To....?!
