| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
The blockbuster global Mummy franchise takes a spellbinding
turn as the action shifts to Asia for the next chapter in
the adventure series, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.
Brendan Fraser returns as explorer Rick O’Connell to
combat the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that
races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid
Himalayas. Rick is joined in this all-new adventure by son
Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her
brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O’Connells
must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens
to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.
Doomed by a double-crossing sorceress (Michelle Yeoh) to
spend eternity in suspended animation, China’s ruthless
Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have lain forgotten
for eons, entombed in clay as a vast, silent terra cotta army.
But when dashing adventurer Alex O’Connell is tricked
into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless
young archaeologist must seek the help of the only people
who know more than he does about taking down the undead: his
parents.
As the monarch roars back to life, our hero finds his quest
for world domination has only intensified over the millennia.
Striding the Far East with unimaginable supernatural powers,
the Emperor Mummy will rouse his legion as an unstoppable,
otherworldly force...unless the O’Connells can stop
him first. Now, in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor,
the trademark thrills and visually spectacular action of the
Mummy series will be redefined for a new generation.
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is helmed by director
Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious, xXx) and written by Alfred
Gough & Miles Millar (Spider-Man 2, television’s
Smallville). Reprising their roles as producers in the series
are Bob Ducsay, Sean Daniel, Stephen Sommers and James Jacks.
