Set photos reveal Sofia Boutella’s Mummy villain
We don’t know very much about Universal’s plan to set up an entire Avengers-like universe of classic monsters, but some set photos from the Mummy reboot at least seem to suggest that its eponymous monster is going for a pretty classic look. Granted, the mummy aesthetic is fairly well-established at this point, but with modern Hollywood you never when something is going to be replaced with a computer-generated cartoon or whatever. According to Coming Soon (via io9), the set photos were snapped by the World Entertainment News Network, and they feature Kingsman’s Sofia Boutella wrapped in some sufficiently spooky rags.
She doesn’t seem especially terrifying at this point, but we imagine that big fan and a scary voice or whatever will give stars Tom Cruise, Jake Johnson, and Courtney B. Vance plenty of reasons to run away from her. You can see more pictures at the Coming Soon link above.
