In an interesting casting decision, martial artist Jet Li is in talks to play the villain in the next installment of 'The Mummy'. Li is best known for his film 'The One', and he also was the villain in 'Lethal Weapon 4'.
Rob Cohen ('Stealth') will direct, and the action will take place in China this time around. Jet Li's character's story will begin in ancient times before moving to a post-World War II setting. Most other plot details are being kept under wraps.
Talks to secure Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz have not nailed down the two actors from the original 'Mummy' films yet.
