The fourth film in The Mummy franchise has been titled The Mummy: Book of the Dead and will be released on 15 October 2027. Brendan Fraser is returning to the series as Rick O'Connell, an American adventurer and First World War veteran, with Rachel Weisz reprising her role as Egyptologist Evelyn Carnahan. John Hannah is also returning as Jonathan Carnahan, Evelyn's older brother.

The film was shot in Suffolk, with Brendan Fraser spotted filming at MOD Woodbridge in September. During production, the 57-year-old actor filmed a record-speed trials sequence in a silver-and-red rocket car, wearing a black leather jacket and matching trousers. It is not known whether additional scenes were filmed in the county.

John Hannah discussed his return to the franchise during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine Kelly programme, saying the cast had 'just kind of fallen back into it' despite the first film being made approximately 28 years earlier. According to IMDB, other original cast members are expected to return, including Oded Ferh and Kevin J. O'Connor, with Arnold Vosloo rumoured to be reprising his role as Imhotep.
