Hot on the heels of first poster and images, the teaser trailer for Evil Dead Rise writer-director Lee Cronin‘s The Mummy is playing below.

Discover what happened to Katie when the terrifying new vision of the classic monster opens in theaters on April 17 via Warner Bros.

Jack Reynor (Midsommar), Laia Costa (“The Wheel of Time”), Natalie Grace (“1923”), Veronica Falcón (“Ozark”), and May Calamawy (“Moon Knight”) star.

The plot is said to involve a journalist’s young daughter who disappears into the desert without a trace. Eight years later, the broken family is shocked when she is returned to them, as what should be a joyful reunion turns into a living nightmare.

“This is a very different kind of Mummy movie,” Cronin told IGN. “It’s an insane mashup to suggest, but [the film is] almost one part Poltergeist and one part Seven, but put through my lens and the way that I like to entertain people.”

From Blumhouse-Atomic Monster and New Line Cinema, the film is produced by Lee, James Wan, Jason Blum, and John Keville.
