Discussions are underway for "The Mummy 4," with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz reportedly in talks to reprise their roles.
The new film is envisioned as a "legacy sequel" that continues the story after "The Mummy Returns," potentially disregarding the events of "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor."
Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, known for their work on "Scream VI" and "Ready or Not," are being eyed to direct.
Horror-writer David Coggeshall is set to pen the script.
Fraser's career resurgence, following his Best Actor Oscar win in 2023, has fueled fan demand for a new installment.
The original 1999 film was a remake of the 1932 movie, and its success spawned two sequels before a less well-received 2017 reboot starring Tom Cruise.
