15 Most Hotly Anticipated Movie Scenes Of 2017
7. The Cruise/Crowe Fight – The Mummy
Of all the things to build an action packed shared universe out of, the Universal Monsters line-up (Dracula, Wolfman, The Invisible Man etc) isn’t the most obvious. Universal are betting large, though, dusting off The Mummy and making it a glossy blockbuster with Tom Cruise.
Out goes suspense or scares, and in comes explosions and silly action scenes. The film will also feature the debut of Russell Crowe’s Dr Jekyll, who give Cruise’s character all the exposition he needs on The Mummy while playing a Nick Fury-style role in future movies.
He and Cruise will also have a big fight scene, and if nothing else the sight of those two punching the crap out of each other should be enough of an excuse to buy a ticket on opening day.
