Dust off your ancient tomes and grab your roll bag of guns—this week, we’re diving into the action-packed, horror-tinged adventure that is The Mummy!

We’ll break down the film’s pitch-perfect casting, thrilling set pieces, and enduring legacy—plus some what if scenarios that could have changed The Mummy as we know it. How close did we get to a very different Rick O’Connell? And why does this movie still hold up so well after 25 years? All that and more on this episode of In a World!
