Sofia Boutella In Talks To Play The Mummy

By
THR is reporting Sofia Boutella, who had a breakout role in Kingsman: The Secret Service, is in talks to play the titular role in Universal's The Mummy.

Yes, the monster in the new reboot will be female, as THR previously reported.

Tom Cruise is in negotiations to star in the modern-day set movie that Alex Kurtzman is helming and Universal will release March 24, 2017. Jon Spaihts wrote the script although plot details are being kept deep in the tomb. Kurtzman is producing with Chris Morgan and Sean Daniel.

Universal's The Mummy is planned as the first film in a series of interconnected monster films as Universal hopes to build a cinematic universe out of its vault of classic creature features. Other potential films revolve around the characters of Dracula, Frankenstein, the Invisible Man, the Bride of Frankenstein, and vampire hunter Van Helsing.

A Universal spokesperson said the studio is not commenting on any casting speculation surrounding Mummy.

Boutella played the blade-legged assassin who serves as the henchman for Samuel L. Jackson's villain in Kingsman, Fox's breakout hit starring Colin Firth and Taron Egerton. She's a classically trained dancer who is known for hip hop and break-dancing, booking commercials for Nike and touring with Madonna.

Kingsman has catapulted her acting career, with her booking a role in Paramount’s Star Trek Beyond, directed by Justin Lin and most recently nabbing a part in The Coldest City, the spy thriller with Charlize Theron and James McAvoy that is in pre-production.

By Matt Cummings
The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
