UPDATE: Weisz Wrapped Up, Drops Out Of Uni's Third 'Mummy'
Thursday, April 12, 2007

Shocking news, how rare is this!? After months of confirming her involvement, Rachel Weisz has officially dropped out of The Mummy 3 for Universal Pictures! The Oscar-winning actress has opted not to join her returning co-star Brendan Fraser in the China-set action-adventure, which will be helmed by Rob Cohen and will co-star Jet Li, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The studio cited scheduling conflicts for Weisz's decision not to reprise her role - although Cinemablend reports that it was because of script problems! I wonder who I believe? We'll keep you posted on her replacement, or if she's written out of the script. The Mummy 3 hits theaters July 11, 2008.
