LONDON, July 11 — Sofia Boutella has been spotted in-character while shooting in London for her upcoming role in Universal Pictures' The Mummy.
Boutella will play the role of The Mummy in this new film and the set images gives us a first look at her outfit which seems to feature costume ratty fabric wrapped around her body and pale-looking make-up. Of course this isn’t the final look, we’ll have to wait for special effects to kick in to know what she’ll really look like in the film.
The synopsis of the film reads: “Thought safely entombed in a crypt deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient queen (Sofia Boutella of Kingsman: The Secret Service and Star Trek Beyond) whose destiny was unjustly taken from her, is awakened in our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.
“From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters.”
The Mummy also stars Tom Cruise, Annabelle Wallis, Jake Johnson and Russell Crowe.
The Mummy is set for release on June 9, 2017.
