Aaron Guzikowski (Prisoners) penned the film's first draft, which doesn't have a director or star attached just yet, although last we heard, Dwayne Johnson (Fast 8), a.k.a.

Alex Kurtzman & Chris Morgan, who are overseeing the entire Monsters Universe, will produce the feature, which will reimagine the 1941 horror classic.
The much-awaited Monsters Universe will finally launch next June with the arrival of The Mummy, which stars megastar Tom Cruise (Jack Reacher: Never Go Back) in the lead role alongside Annabelle Wallis (King Arthur: Legend of the Sword), Sofia Boutella (Star Trek Beyond), Jake Johnson (Jurassic World), Primetime Emmy-winner Courtney B.
