The steelbook edition of The Mummy uses the theatrical posters for its front and rear covers. Inside, you'll find a screenshot from the movie. Warner Bros. says the 4K version supports Dolby Vision and HDR10, plus Dolby Atmos and Dolby TrueHD 7.1 sound for the English audio track. Special features include a director's commentary, deleted scenes, and featurettes. These bonus materials will also be in the standard 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD releases. We've listed these editions below. While the cover art for the regular editions hasn't been revealed, they will likely use the theatrical poster art.

Lee Cronin's The Mummy follows a family trying to rebuild their life after a horrific event. The young daughter of the Cannon family disappears into the desert without a trace, and eight years later, she is found, having spent almost a decade trapped inside a sarcophagus. Reunited with her family, chaos erupts as the reason she was buried alive slowly comes to light.
For more Blu-ray preorders, you can also get less-frightening content like a new Conan the Barbarian steelbook and a 4K Blu-ray box set celebrating Steven Spielberg's biggest hits. Amazon is also offering three 4K Blu-rays for just $33, including a mix of all-time classics and modern blockbusters.
