The Invisible Man
It come out Universal’sDark Universemight not be utter as dead as it seemed . Universal has attempted doubly now to boot its classic colossus movie population ; first withDracula Untoldin 2014 and then Tom Cruise’sThe Mummyin 2017 . Neither movie was a complete bomb calorimeter at the box bureau , but they both performed below outlook financially and failed to impress audiences as a whole . Universal even launchedan intact trailer for the Dark Universeahead ofThe Mummy ’s release and included the logotype with the motion-picture show ’s possibility title of respect .

Now , somewhat out of the blue , the Dark Universe is testify new mark of biography . Last calendar week , L.A. artist Robert Vargas posted a photo to hisInstagramaccount ( h / tBloody Disgusting ) from his coming together with"the awe-inspiring # DarkUniverse team,“which includes Universal studio executive Holly Goline . He further teased"Monster things in the work " , but held off on elaborate on what , exactly , that means .
The implication here is Universal is still actively revamp its plan for the Dark Universe , like Solomon indicated they were earlier this yr . Universal is n’t the only major studio apartment reassess its shared universe ambitiousness at the minute , either . Warner Bros. is currently decide where to take its DC cinematic universe afterWonder Woman 2hits theaters in 2019 , and even Lucasfilm has refrained from formally locking down itsStar Warsmovie dismissal ticket beyondEpisode 9next yr .
There are certainlyelements ofThe Mummythat workedand could be carried over into the revised Dark Universe . It ’s also possible Universal wants a clean ticket and mean to leave that cinema behind , like it did whenDracula Untoldfailed to kick - off its first attempt at a rebooted goliath universe . Either way , there are still plenty of buff of Universal ’s iconic fauna out there that would like to see them restored to their former gloriole on the adult CRT screen . Here ’s to hoping it eventually happens , whether as part of the Dark Universe or another franchise altogether .
