The Mystery Unfolds

The footage depicts Charlie’s desperate search for his daughter, intercut with scenes of Katie at a picnic before her disappearance. The trailer highlights the mystery surrounding Katie’s time within a 3000-year-old sarcophagus, which has turned her into a monstrous and dangerous entity, threatening her family.

New posters have also been released, promoting screenings in various formats including IMAX, AMC Dolby Cinema, 4DX, and ScreenX. Lee Cronin’s The Mummy is a reimagining of the classic Universal Pictures franchise.

The film is scheduled to arrive in North American theaters on April 17, 2026. This marks Cronin’s return to directing three years after his previous feature, Evil Dead Rise. Cronin previously described the film as a “mystery” and “puzzle box,” which attracted him to the project.
