Laia Costa joins Jack Reynor at the head of the new cinematographic version of ‘La Mummy’ that will be written and directed by Lee Cronin.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the production begins this week in Ireland and the premiere of the new version of the mummy is scheduled for April 17, 2026. The details of the plot remain secret, but it is known that Costa and Reynor play a marriage that, together with their daughter, crosses the most beloved mummy.
The protagonist of five lobitos and a love has already participated in other American productions such as Newness, Piercing, Maine independent films or as life itself and series such as Soulmates or the Wheel of Time.
New Line Cinema is behind this feature film produced by Atomic Monster and Blumhouse. Doppelgängers, the company led by Cronin, also produces. Cronin has already directed for New Line the horror tape Infernal possession: the awakening.
“It will not look like any other mummy movie that you have seen before. I am digging very deeply to lift something very old and very scary,” said Cronin three months ago in statements to Thr.
The latest cinematographic version of the mummy saw the light in 2017 and, directed by Alex Kurtzman, was starring Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe and Sofia Boutella. An ambitious project that was part of the ill -fated Dark Universe of Universal Pictures and that kneaded 400 million dollars, far from expectations.
