While we've seen 2 of Evelyn's styles in the upcoming The Mummy Book of the Dead film so far and she's so far removed from her past pieces. Let's rewind back as Rachel Weisz spills the tea on Evelyn's clothing journey on the set of Hamunaptra in The Mummy. Source: ET #rachelweisz #themummy #style

THE MUMMY (1999) felt like a B-tier popcorn flick mixing horror, action, adventure and comedy, a recipe that could’ve easily been a disaster. Instead, it delivered A-tier blockbuster filmmaking. An all-timer of the genre.
What movie had absolutely no right being as good as it was? A film that could’ve easily been a lazy cash grab built around an existing IP, but somehow turned out genuinely brilliant. THE LEGO MOVIE and DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: HONOR AMONG THIEVES are perfect examples. What movie went in with rock-bottom expectations and completely blew you away?

🚋Mummy Fans, did you ever wonder how Jonathan got ahold of the double-decker bus? Here's the original scene. Jonathan pretended to be on the tour, earlier that day. He told the driver that he and his ‘son’ came back because they lost a small book about Tom Mix while on it, and they forgot to tip him for his “delightful tour”. “Would you mind terribly if my son and I stepped aboard for a moment?“ And Jonathan held out a second pound note. "Just to check our seats? It might have slipped back under, you know.” #johnhannah #cutscene #themummyreturns

🚨🚨John Hannah talks Mummy 4 and ribbing Arnold Vosloo with Brendan. Congrats to Mr. Vosloo. 🥳 "I'm so glad Rachel's back, Kevin J. O'Connor's back from the first one. Arnold...he's just had..." Notice how his tone changes for a second. Almost like he let something slip then changed course. #mummy4 #johnhannah #arnoldvosloo

🎃Wanna be Anck for Halloween? This super rare costume of Anck-Su-Namun was released by Rubies (now defuncted) back in 1999 after the success of The Mummy. There was also an Imhotep costume to complete the pair. Can you imagine if they had licensed O'Connell and Evelyn. They didn't though. Maybe next year.😉 #ancksunamun #themummy

‼️These two separate scenes have us wondering.🤔 Clearly Evelyn is listening for the report on Rick’s race. Probably hears about the small track mishap although Rick isn’t as banged up. Why isn’t Jonathan at the track supporting his brother in law? And why isn’t Evelyn? What could prevent them from attending such an event. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below!👇 #themummy4 #brendanfraser #rachelweisz

🚨🚨Filming at the Blythe house today. Onlookers reported Evelyn (Rachel Weisz stunt double) running down a fire escape. Then another scene was filmed with a bloke in a black leather jacket and black attire leaving the building looking back. Possible baddie? Who knows. Source: reddit.com/r/themummy/s/IpV8…

DID YOU KNOW: This smokey eye look for Evelyn was not planned. In the 1999 film The Mummy, the character Evelyn Carnahan (played by Rachel Weisz) famously wears a striking, heavily lined eye makeup look after changing into a traditional black Bedouin outfit. The eye makeup was actually done by the women that you see coming out of the tent.💄x👁️ #themummy #rachelweisz

From storyboard to screen, The Mummy captivated audiences throughout multiple generations. And after the script is finished, it's up to the storyboard artist to capture the beats. Here we have the breakdown of the scene where O'Connell saves Evelyn while fighting off some mummies with comical results. 🎨Storyboard Artist: Stephen Forrest-Smith 🔔Follow us for more Mummy content! #themummy #rachelweisz #brendanfraser

For decades, one question has plagued the fandom with the premieres of The Mummy and The Mummy Returns: Where was Rachel Weisz? We get asked about her absence all the time. Now Rachel has answered it in her own words: she missed both premieres because she was performing in plays in London and couldn’t get away. "They wouldn't let me out of the plays." The interviewer wondered whether the films’ box office success had brought her a sudden new level of recognition. Rachel’s answer offers a reminder that a hit film and the experience of becoming famous don’t always happen in quite the way we imagine. Hopefully no plays will keep her from the Mummy 4 premiere! 🤞 #rachelweisz #themummy

Brendan Fraser's dedication to O'Connell in The Mummy Returns was legendary. He was insistent of doing most of his own stunts, taking bumps. "There was a lot of preparation involved... weights, high protein dieting, the works ... . In the script where it says Rick gets thrown across the room, then I did, and sort of got smashed up in the process." #brendanfraser #themummyreturns

The Mummy Returns was dubbed as a "Roller Coaster Ride" by some reviewers and it certainly lived up to that statement with Rick and Evelyn raiding the tombs of Egypt, then global throttling to London, the Oasis of Ahm Shere and other locations hot on Imhotep's trail. Do you think the new film will have that globe throtting element to it? 🔔🔔Let us know in the comments below and follow us for more Mummy content and film facts! #themummyreturns #brendanfraser #rachelweisz
