Last summer, Universal hoped to breathe new life into the monsters by kicking off the Dark Universe of films which started with The Mummy. The plan was to bring big-name talent to the studios most iconic characters, including Javier Bardem as Frankenstein's Monster, Johnny Depp as the Invisible Man, and Russell Crowe as Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde.

The financial and critical disappointment of The Mummy resulted in the project being put on an indefinite hiatus, leaving fans waiting for any news about the future of the beloved characters.

You can pre-order the set now at Amazon before it releases on August 28th.
