A return to The Mummy franchise for a fourth installment has been highly requested, but it may be challenging without retconning some of the franchise’s past failures. Overall, The Mummy is regarded as a beloved piece of nostalgia. In the age of reboots and revivals, the idea of returning to Rick and Evelyn O’Connell has never seemed more likely. However, the notorious flop that was The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor has left a stain on the franchise, ultimately making another sequel challenging to achieve without some changes to the franchise’s canon story.
