The idea of The Mummy 4 is looking promising, but if it were to happen and be a success, it would need to learn from the franchise's past mistakes.
With the popularity of reboots and nostalgia sequels, the hope for a The Mummy 4 movie has been high—but it would need to avoid some of the mistakes made by its predecessors. The first The Mummy movie is still considered a success and has become a cult classic. However, the performance of the subsequent sequels saw a steady decline in audiences' interest.
If The Mummy 4 were to become a reality, it would need to bring back all the central cast. This would mean Rick O'Connell , Evelyn O'Connell , and Jonathan Carnahan would all need to be recognizable as their The Mummy counterparts. This is especially true since any return to The Mummy franchise would depend heavily on nostalgia—and recasting everyone's favorite characters just wouldn't do it.
Fraser and Bello might have been able to duplicate the chemistry from the previous films in The Mummy 3, but since the plot focused on Rick and Evie struggling to find their spark again, it all just fell apart. Of course, no couple will be as fiery 20 years into marriage as they were when they first found each other, but realism was never what The Mummy movies were after. If the characters were to be again brought to the screen in The Mummy 4, the fiery passion would need to come with them.
