Life After Imhotep?

Rob Cohen directed the third film, but Sommers isn't opposed to coming back for his own third Mummy movie, should all the stars align.

Though maybe not all the stars...

"I'd probably do a different [villain]," the filmmaker told SYFY Wire in 2023. "I love Arnold Vosloo, he’s one of my best friends. I talk to Arnold all the time, but I think you’d have to do something [different]. Bringing him back for the sequel, it really worked and made sense and the rules worked. But sometimes, you just have to change things up a little bit."

As for Fraser, who at the time was about to win his Best Actor Oscar for The Whale, Sommers said, "I'm so happy for him and so proud of him. I love to see him win. He was a dream."

Likening him to the equally nice and hard-working Hugh Jackman, the star of his 2004 film Van Helsing, he added, "You really don’t want someone who's whiny or a jerk. You don’t want any jerks around and that was so nice to have all those people. They were just great."
