Tony Black on whether the Universal Monsters will deliver the next big cinematic franchise… You all remember The Mummy, right?

June 24, 2017 by Harrison Abbott

Harrison Abbott on how Universal can save the Dark Universe… Whilst its international take is admittedly surpassing its domestic performance by quite some way, it is still reasonable to suggest that The Mummy hasn’t been the mega-hit that Universal were hoping for.
