The film follows the fun adventures of three Egyptian mummies who live in an underground secret city, hidden in ancient Egypt. The trio includes a princess, a former charioteer, and his younger brother along with their pet baby crocodile. Through a series of unfortunate events, the mummies end up in present-day London and embark on a wacky and hilarious journey in search of an old ring belonging to the Royal Family, that was stolen by the ambitious archaeologist Lord Carnaby. The film is directed by Juan Jesús García Galocha (“Galo”), who makes his feature film debut following his work as art director on films such as “Tad: The Lost Explorer” and “Tad, the Lost Explorer, and the Secret of King Midas”. The script was co-written by Jordi Gasull and Javier Barreira, Goya Award winners for Best Screenplay for “Tad: The Lost Explorer”. Emmy Award-winning screenwriter Ricky Roxburgh (“Tangled: The Series”) supported the English language adaptation of the script. Gasull, winner of three Goya Awards for Best Animated Film for “Tad: The Lost Explorer”, “Capture the Flag” and “Tad, the Lost Explorer, and the Secret of King Midas”, is also the film's producer.
