Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz Reunite on 'Mummy 4' Set in London

Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz have reunited on the set of "The Mummy 4," offering fans a first look at the duo reprising their iconic roles. Set photos posted on X and obtained by Page Six show the actors filming in London, 25 years after they last shared the screen in "The Mummy Returns."

First Look at the Reunion

In the images, Fraser, who plays Rick O'Connell, is seen wearing a brown suede jacket over a green plaid shirt, according to Yahoo. Page Six describes his outfit as a green flannel under a corduroy jacket with dark denim jeans and boots. Weisz, who plays Evelyn Carnahan, is pictured in a burgundy blazer and matching skirt, per Yahoo, while Page Six notes she wore a belted maroon coat and coordinating skirt with black pumps.

The photos capture the pair facing each other in what appears to be a confrontational scene, though they are also seen laughing and sharing a warm moment. This marks the first time the co-stars have been photographed together on set for this installment. In September, they were spotted filming separately, with Fraser at a former military base in Suffolk, England, and Weisz in London.

Cast and Production Details

"The Mummy 4" is directed by Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin. The film serves as a direct sequel to 1999's "The Mummy" and 2001's "The Mummy Returns," ignoring the events of the 2008 film "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor."

The returning cast includes:

  • John Hannah as Jonathan Carnahan
  • Arnold Vosloo as Imhotep
  • Oded Fehr as Ardeth Bay
  • Kevin J. O'Connor as Beni Gabor

New cast additions include Numan Acar and Michael Johnston. Weisz previously explained to ES Magazine in 2008 that she did not return for the third installment due to a scheduling conflict that would have required five months in China.

The movie, which remains untitled, is scheduled for release on October 15, 2027. This date was moved up from an originally scheduled release in May 2028, according to Page Six. News of the actors' return first broke in November 2025, with their participation confirmed three months later.
