Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz Reunite for The Mummy 4

Leaked set photos have confirmed what fans have been hoping for: Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are returning to reprise their iconic roles as Rick O'Connell and Evelyn Carnahan in The Mummy 4. It's a reunion that brings back the chemistry that made the original trilogy work so well.

The film will also welcome back John Hannah, Oded Fehr, and Kevin J. O'Connor, who all played key roles in the earlier instalments. New to the cast is Numan Acar, joining in an undisclosed role. Michael Johnston is also part of the ensemble, with speculation suggesting he may play Rick and Evy's son—though nothing's been confirmed just yet.

Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, The Mummy 4 is scheduled to arrive on October 15, 2027. That's still a ways off, which gives the filmmakers time to craft something that honours what made these characters resonate: adventure, humour, and genuine affection between the leads.

For anyone who grew up with these films, seeing Fraser and Weisz back in these roles feels like a gift. The Mummy films had a particular warmth to them—they weren't trying to be grim or cynical, and they trusted their audience to enjoy spectacle and heart in equal measure. Whether The Mummy 4 can recapture that magic remains to be seen, but having the original cast together is a solid foundation.
