They’ve been rumors that Jet Li was going to play the villain in the latest “Mummy” films for a while now, but it never seemed really possible to me. Li may have played a villain in “Lethal Weapon 4″, but that was his first Hollywood movie, and I was sure he wasn’t going to do it again. Well maybe I was wrong. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Li is in negotiations to play the villainous mummy in “Mummy 3″, which will be set in and around China and its culture. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, on the other hand, haven’t yet to sign on the bottom line, although both have said many times that they’re gung ho about coming back. It looks like it’s all about the money at this point, but considering the franchise’s profitability, that won’t take long.
And come on, this isn’t a “Mummy” movie without Rachel Weisz.
