The Mummy unwittingly cancelled 7 movies.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The failure of 2017's The Mummy saw Universal's planned Dark Universe fall at the first hurdle, meaning seven movies were canceled as a result. The Mummy was imagined by Universal as the first installment in their own shared universe, based on Universal's Classic Monsters franchise.
6 The Bride Of Frankenstein One planned movie in the Dark Universe that was officially confirmed, however, was a remake of Bride of Frankenstein. Angelina Jolie was cast in the titular role with the film originally scheduled for a 2019 release date by Beauty and the Beast director Bill Condon. Initially, Bride of Frankenstein was envisaged as the beginning of the Dark Universe before that honor shifted to The Mummy.
3 Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde Alongside Cruise, Boutella, Bardem, and Depp in the image released to promote the Dark Universe was Russell Crowe. Crowe appeared in 2017's The Mummy in the dual role of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. While not playing a huge role, his momentary turn into Mr. Hyde was likely used as a set-up to tell a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde story.
