Universal are unleashing their newest version of The Mummy on the world this month, kicking off their Dark Universe in the process.
We've given our two cents on the film, saying it's 'more entertaining than expected', while other critics were less kind. The only opinion that really matters though, is Brendan Fraser's.
The actor played leading man Rick O'Connell in two gloriously fun The Mummy films in 1999 and 2001 (and one rubbish one in 2008), so what does he think of the newly rebooted, grimmer and grittier franchise?
"I understand that Tom [Cruise] is very popular in the world of getting films," he joked to Access Hollywood, before adding: "I know very little about the actual project itself but I know it's gonna be great for an audience 'cause they're always gonna be there for that popcorn-movie thrilling feeling and adventure.
"I'm grateful for all the support over the years. Thank you."
While he gave a very mature answer and we're glad he didn't trash the new film, you can hear more than a tinge of sadness in his voice as he reminisces about those movies after being told that fans wanted him back.
What to Read Next
While he's sadly not a Hollywood leading man anymore, Fraser is still getting work – he recently joined the cast of The Affair, which has been renewed for a fourth season.
