Final Trailer for Lee Cronin’s The Mummy Drops as Tickets Go on Sale for April 17 Release

Lee Cronin shifts the classic monster into intimate, possession-driven horror.

Overview

  • Warner Bros., New Line, Blumhouse, and Atomic Monster released a final trailer and new posters Wednesday, with tickets now on sale for the April 17 theatrical rollout in IMAX and Dolby Cinema.
  • The official setup follows a journalist’s daughter who vanished in the desert and reappears eight years later, turning a long‑awaited homecoming into a nightmare.
  • Cronin describes his take as a domestic possession story with body horror and a detective edge, calling it “one part Poltergeist and one part Seven.”
  • The Motion Picture Association rated the film R for strong disturbing violent content, gore, language, and brief drug use.
  • Producers James Wan, Jason Blum, and John Keville back a cast led by Jack Reynor, Laia Costa, May Calamawy, Natalie Grace, and Verónica Falcón, and Blumhouse stated Thursday that Brendan Fraser is not in this standalone film separate from Universal’s Fraser sequel.
