Who’s your MUMMY?! Arnold Vosloo, The Rock, Jet Li? If you recognize these sand-sweeping actors and their evil, big-screen alter egos, then you must be a fan of THE MUMMY series. You must also be highly anticipating the third installment of the franchise, THE MUMMY: TOMB OF THE DRAGON EMPEROR. If that’s the case, then you should really be checking out the exclusive Behind The Scenes Clip we’ve got from EMPEROR below!
You’ll see a ton of action-and-comedy-packed clips as well as interviews with star Brendan Fraser, new director Rob Cohen, producer Stephen Sommers (who directed the first two MUMMY’s), and more! It’s a pretty nifty little clip. To be honest, I wasn’t a huge fan of the last two MUMMY’s, but I’m kind of liking this third one. Especially after watching the Behind-The-Scenes clip! Perhaps the franchise needed a fresh dose of adrenaline from the always-on-high-octane Cohen.
The plot for number 3 goes a little something like this: …This time, the O’Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.
Doomed by a double-crossing sorceress (Michelle Yeoh) to spend eternity in suspended animation, China’s ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have laid forgotten for eons, entombed in clay as a vast, silent terra cotta army. But when dashing adventurer Alex O’Connell is tricked into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless young archaeologist must seek the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the undead: his parents.
As the monarch roars back to life, our heroes find his quest for world domination has only intensified over the millennia. Striding the Far East with unimaginable supernatural powers, the Emperor Mummy will rouse his legion as an unstoppable, otherworldly force…unless the O’Connells can stop him first.
