Mummy 3 in the Works

Posted by support@reallyscary.com (ReallyScary.com) on January 10, 2007 Variety reports Rob Cohen is in talks with Universal Pictures to take the reins on a third edition of its Mummy franchise.

Not much has been disclosed about the story crafted for Mummy 3 by scribes Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, but the pic has been in active development for about a year as Universal looks to keep one of its remaining franchises up and running.

Though no deals are in place for franchise stars Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz to return, both thesps have had discussions about reprising their roles.
