Can’t Blame Him
Of course, you can’t think of The Mummy without remembering that terrifying locust swarm! Did you know that very scene needed to be re-shot a bunch of times? Well more specifically, Jonathan Hyde’s close-up needed to be re-shot. Apparently, the actor couldn’t keep a straight face while he dealt with all those locusts crawling on him. Yikes!

Name Origin
Around 2600 BC, there was an architect named Imhotep. He helped construct the first pyramids like the Pyramid of Djoser. Some claimed he came from the gods since his talent was so incredible. “Imhotep” translates to “one who comes in peace.” So in real life he was a celebrated architect and also physician and not at all the villain we see in the movie.
