A New THE MUMMY Film by Lee Cronin, Atomic Monster, and Blumhouse Will Arrive in 2026

As a lifelong fan of horror films, I can’t help but get goosebumps at the prospect of a new Mummy movie. Having grown up watching the original Brendan Fraser trilogy and more recently being enthralled by the atmospheric retelling in Tom Cruise’s 2017 version, I am eager to see what Lee Cronin, Atomic Monster, and Blumhouse have in store for us.

Their statement about raising something “very ancient and very frightening” has me hooked, as a fan who enjoys the darker and more terrifying aspects of horror films. The fact that they’re keeping details under wraps only adds to the anticipation, making it all the more intriguing.

As someone who has seen their fair share of Mummy movies, I can confidently say that this upcoming project will be unlike any Mummy movie I ever laid eyeballs on before. And as a fan who’s also a bit of a skeptic, I’ll believe it when I see it—or rather, when I hear it!

To lighten the mood, I can’t help but wonder what ancient curse this new Mummy will bring upon us fans. Will we be doomed to watch endless trailers for this movie? Or perhaps, we’ll be cursed with the inability to avoid spoilers until release day? Only time will tell!

In simple terms, it seems that The Mummy is going to resurface in a new horror movie, set for release on April 17, 2026. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Lee Cronin, Atomic Monster, and Blumhouse are collaborating on this project, which will be a fresh take on the classic tale of The Mummy. Details about the plot, casting, and other aspects of the film are still scarce, but we can expect more updates later in the year. Whether it’s a reboot, reimagining, or something completely new remains to be seen.

Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Cronin, renowned for his work on Evil Dead Rise, expressed, “You’ve never seen a Mummy film quite like this one. I’m delving deep into the earth to awaken something incredibly old and incredibly terrifying.

Blumhouse and Cronin shared an intriguing, foreboding teaser about their upcoming film “The Mummy” on Instagram. The post displayed the title page of the script, crediting Cronin, Atomic Monster, and Blumhouse, with a caption hinting at a chilling revelation to be released in 2026.

This is all quite intriguing, so let’s see where it goes.
