Making
In November 2001, director Stephen Sommers, who directed the previous Mummy films, said about directing a third Mummy film, “There’s a demand for it, but most of the gang would only be up for it again if we could find a way to make it bigger and better.” In May 2004, Sommers expressed his doubts about having the energy to make a third Mummy, though the cast of previous films had expressed interest in returning. In December 2005, a review of a script written by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar was about a Chinese mummy (China’s first emperor, who wants to take over the world with his army of accursed warriors in 1940. The idea of the Han Emperor and his army is based on the real-life Qin emperor Qin Shi Huang, who was buried amidst thousands of crafted and fired terra cotta soldiers, called the Terracotta Army, believed to date back to 210 BC.
