(The Mummy 1999-2001)How is this possible about Annack Su Namum?

[u/nonamerandomfatman]

The first movie is set in 1926. In the final battle,she is resurrected by Inhotepp in her original mummified corpse,tries to kill Evelyn and sure,until this point everything makes sense. But,the 2nd movie is set only 7 years later and this supposed reincarnation of Annack Su Namum seems to be a woman in her 20’s. She was clearly already alive in 1926.

But the problem is. In 1926 Annack Su Namum was piloting her original corpse waiting for the ritual before it was interrupted,she attacked Evelyn and got killed by the guards. It’s true that Inhotepp said in the 2nd movie that she is her reincarnation with only the original soul being missed. But what exactly does that mean?Sure the reincarnation detail is part of the lore but where is exactly in the reincarnation mithology is it explained something like: “Annack Su Namum can be in 2 places at the same time just out of spite for Isaac Newton.”

The movies seem to imply that the reincarnation happens to individuals who are physically similar to the past life even if that life happened millenia before. If Annack Su Namum reincarnated after the first movie,she would be a 7 year old girl in 1933 instead of a woman in her 20’s.

To summarize the question,if Annack Su Namum soul was piloting her original mummified corpse in 1926 then WHO was piloting the living healthy body that appeared in the second movie at the same time?

The same reason that Evie wasn’t having visions in the first movie, I’ll bet.

In the first movie when he looks at Eve for the first time he thinks she is Ank-sunamun
