Lee Cronin has confirmed that filming has officially wrapped on The Mummy, the Evil Dead Rise director's upcoming take on the classic monster horror.
Set to hit theaters on April 17, 2026, The Mummy comes as part of Cronin's deal with New Line Cinema, with horror giants Blumhouse and James Wan's Atomic Monster producing.
Midsommar‘s Jack Reynor leads the cast, with Laia Costa (Devils), Veronica Falcón (The Forever Purge, Imaginary), May Calamawy (Moon Knight), and May Elghety (Grand Hotel) also starring.
Plot details for The Mummy are still firmly under wraps, but back in December, Cronin teased a little of what we can expect from his upcoming take on the classic Universal Monster movie:
“This will be unlike any Mummy movie you ever laid eyeballs on before […] I’m digging deep into the earth to raise something very ancient and very frightening,”
Cronin's Instagram post (see below) gives us a glimpse of the set of The Mummy, complete with a wall of hieroglyphics.
Cronin's Evil Dead Rise was a huge hit back in 2023, nabbing almost $150 million at the global box office and kickstarting a new chapter in the Evil Dead franchise which sees creator Sam Raimi handpicking directors to helm standalone entries in the series.
Look out for more on The Mummy as we get it.
