Len Wiseman Off Mummy Redo
Thu, August 1, 2013 
A do-over of The Mummy is director-less at the moment. Len Wiseman has exited the project, reports The Wrap.
Universal and producers Sean Daniels and Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman (Oh boy...) search for his replacement. This latest version is expected to shy away from the Indiana Jones/serial-inspired films from Stephen Sommers and closer to its horror origins.
Not much else to add, kiddos. Wiseman is far from the run-of-the-mill, faceless assembly-line directors he's labeled as. Yeah, the Total Recall remake was Vanilla, and not even the good kind like French Vanilla or Vanilla Bean, and I never dared step foot into an Underworld. But give the man his due. He did a kick-ass job on Live Free or Die Hard, stupidly exaggerated title notwithstanding.
They'll find someone else the Internet can shit on shortly.
