Adele Ankers-Range is a senior writer at MovieWeb with additional bylines at IGN, Sideshow Collectibles, Screen Rant, and more. As an avid cinephile and physical media collector, she spends more time alphabetizing her collection than she would care to admit. The rest of her time is spent watching movies and TV shows, while also writing about them. She set about sharing her words with the world shortly after completing her bachelor's degree in Journalism, Film & Media Studies. She is proud to be part of the MovieWeb family, covering everything from release dates and casting announcements to trailers and fan theories. When Universal Pictures unleashed The Mummy in 1999, it became an instant blockbuster fueled by high-stakes action and crackling romantic chemistry. Its wildly successful 2001 sequel, The Mummy Returns, cemented the action-adventure saga as an absolute juggernaut. However, the franchise stumbled with 2008's Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, which lost its way amid high-profile casting changes.
