Plot Summary

The Mummy 3: Resurrection (2022) brings back the beloved adventurer Rick O’Connell, years after the events of the Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Now retired and living in quiet obscurity with his wife Evelyn, their peace is shattered when a new excavation unearths an ancient tomb sealed under the Sahara — a burial site that should never have been touched.

The dig awakens Princess Khalida, a forgotten sorceress queen who was cursed and entombed by her own people after attempting to fuse dark necromancy with the power of the gods. But her resurrection also disturbs another slumbering force — a long-ᴅᴇᴀᴅ emperor once imprisoned in the underworld, brought back through a forbidden ritual.

Rick, Evelyn, and their allies — including the mysterious warrior Ardeth Bay — must stop these ancient evils from unleashing a supernatural apocalypse. With time unraveling and the ᴅᴇᴀᴅ rising, the past and present collide in a race across deserts, tombs, and mythic realms.
