Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was intended to launch Universal's 'Dark Universe' shared monster franchise, which collapsed after this film underperformed. The planned Bride of Frankenstein starring Angelina Jolie was shelved indefinitely.
Sofia Boutella's Ahmanet was marketed as the first female Mummy, reframing the monster as a wronged princess—though critics noted the film still sexualized her punishment in ways the male mummies never faced.
