Departure

He's fighting Jet Li.

Looks amazing. I can't wait. Is there actually going to be a Mummy in this though? jk. (actually, there probably won't be according to the summary of it)

And here's an update on the movie...

Quote:

Rob Cohen has posted a new entry on his blog. In it, he gives a behind-the-scenes update on his upcoming film The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. He also leaks a couple of spoilers.

To read the blog,

Jet Li plays a despotic Emperor in 50 B.C. whose evil is punished by a terrible curse laid on him by wizardress Michelle Yeoh: he and his army are turned into to terra cotta for all time; that is, unless he is re-awakened which, of course, is where the O'Connells come back into it.

The story moves to the year 1946. When we find them, Rick (Brendan Fraser) and Evelyn (Maria Bello) are retired to Oxfordshire, England, having been spies for the British during World War II. They are bored silly and welcome the offer of "one last mission" from the Foreign Office. Their assignment: courier a precious artifact back to the museum in Shanghai, China from which it was stolen.

Back to Asia: China is in turmoil but Jonathan (John Hannah) owns an Egyptian-themed bar in Shanghai. Unbeknownst to his parents, now grown-up Alex O'Connell (Luke Ford) is following in the family business as a young archaeologist on a dig in north-central China. He makes the discovery of a lifetime: the tomb of the Dragon Emperor, which has been buried for millennia. A beautiful assassin (Isabella Leong) tries to kill him to keep the location secret but Alex prevails. The Emperor's monument is transported back to Shanghai where another plot is in motion: military zealot Anthony Wong intends to awaken the Emperor and aid him in the re-conquest of China and the raising of his terra cotta army of ten thousand clay warriors.

The family is reunited and high adventure ensues: crash landings, treks thru the Himalayas, Yeti, avalanches, Shangri-la, three-headed dragons, pools of eternal life, epic battles, a shape-shifting Jet Li.

The film opens August 1st, 2008.

but wait "Unbeknownst" means unfamiliar or not knowing someone, he doesn't know his own parents? I could've sworn they were in the WHOLE 2nd movie together.

i'm pretty sure it means that his parents either didn't know that he decided to become an archaeologist like them or that they didn't know he was on a Chinese archaeological dig. It doesn't mean that he doesn't know them, it means that his parents weren't aware of what he was doing. Which is understandable, because in the time that the movie takes place, if he was in China & they were in England (assuming they still live there like in the 1st two movies), it would have taken a little longer than usual to convey news to your family and friends.
