Saturday Trivia - The Mummy

Mummy III
"Mummy fans have been wondering for some time now whether the next film in the campy thriller franchise would involve Egypt again. It now appears that the new Mummy villain will be Chinese . . . . The script, if genuine, was written by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, the creators of Smallville. This contradicts an earlier rumor that said director Stephen Sommers was writing the script. Parts for both Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are written in, although there's no confirmation yet that they're involved with the next film".
See the above web page for the rest of this brief piece. A review of the script is listed at:
