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 laid 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 heroes find 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, otherworldy force… unless the O'Connells can stop him first.
