Also joining the cast are franchise veterans Kevin J. O'Connor and Oded Fehr. The film will be directed by "Scream" (2022) and "Ready or Not" filmmakers Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett aka Radio Silence, from a script by David Coggeshall ("Orphan: First Kill", "The Family Plan").
Plot details are being kept under wraps. There is no information about Acar's role, but O'Connor and Fehr will reprise their roles as Beni Gabor and Ardeth Bay, respectively, which were first introduced in the 1999 "The Mummy". Fehr also returned to star in the 2001 sequel "The Mummy Returns". Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz and John Hannah are also back, while Michael Johnson ("Obsession") is another new addition to the cast.
The sequel will be released in theaters on October 15, 2027.
