The Mummy Returns Movie Highlight Scene
- 2 years ago
The Mummy Returns is the 2001 sequel to the 1999 remake of The Mummy and the second entry in The Mummy Trilogy. It is written and directed by Stephen Sommers. It was released on May 4, 2001.
Set in 1933, the film features the now-married Rick and Evelyn O'Connell (Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz) and their inquisitive 8-year-old son, Alex (Freddie Boath). Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) is once again resurrected by an Egyptian cult led by Baltus Hafez (Alun Armstrong) to steal the supernatural Army of Anubis from the Scorpion King (Dwayne Johnson in his film debut), an ancient immortal warlord who will use the army to end the world if he is awakened. When Alex is kidnapped during a raid on the O'Connell's home, they must get their son back and save the day.
The film also stars John Hannah as Jonathan Carnahan, Oded Fehr as Ardeth Bay and Patricia Velásquez as Meela Nais/Anck-su-namun.
In 3067 BC, the Scorpion King leads an army to conquer the world. However, they are defeated and exiled to the desert of Ahm Shere. The king vows to give Anubis his soul in return for the power to defeat his enemies, so an oasis and pyramid magically form, and he is given an army of warriors. The Army of Anubis sweeps across Egypt, but once their task is finished, Anubis claims the Scorpion King's soul and the army returns to the Underworld.
In 1933, Rick O'Connell and his wife Evelyn explore ancient ruins with their son, Alex, finding the Bracelet of Anubis. In London, the bracelet locks onto Alex, showing him a vision directing him to Ahm Shere. Evelyn is captured by an Egyptian cult who resurrect Imhotep with the Book of the Dead; they wish to use his power to defeat the Scorpion King, giving him command of Anubis' army to conquer the world. The cult, led by Baltus Hafez, includes enforcer Lock-Nah and Meela Nais, the physical reincarnation of Imhotep's love Anck-su-namun.
The O'Connells set out to rescue Evelyn, with her brother Jonathan and the Medjai Ardeth Bay. Jonathan gets his hands on a mysterious golden scepter.
Rick frees Evelyn and flees, but Alex is then kidnapped by Lock-Nah and forced to go to Egypt with the cult. The O'Connells pursue them, with Rick's associate Izzy. The bracelet gives Alex directions to Ahm Shere that the cult follows; Imhotep forces his cooperation by warning him that, if he doesn't enter the pyramid's within a week, the bracelet will kill him. At each location, Alex leaves clues for his parents, who follow in Izzy's dirigible. Imhotep uses the Book of the Dead to give Meela Anck-su-namun's soul, but by doing so, he allows Evelyn to unlock the memories of her previous life as Princess Nefertiri, the bracelet's keeper and Pharaoh Seti I's daughter.
At the edge of the Oasis, Imhotep realises they're being pursued so uses his magic to crash the dirigible; Izzy stays behind to repair it. By nightfall, the cult saw the dead people of history have come to the Oasis as they have failed to invade Ahm Shere: like Roman legionnaires, and
