In November 2019, Condon reflected on the proposed "Bride of Frankenstein" remake not entering production. He stated: "That was a heartbreaker, really [...] the simplest way to say it is that I think "The Mummy", and not to say anything against the movie, but the fact that that hadn't worked for them and it was the beginning of this whole reinvention of their monsters gave them cold feet at the end of the day. Because David Koepp was writing the script, I thought it was unbelievably good, and we were on the verge of making a really beautiful movie, I thought. So that was a shame." He also noted his uncertainty regarding his ability to publicly discuss the project "because I think, is still involved in figuring out the new approach [... The movie that we started was devised as a great big movie, and at the end of the day, probably these movies should be smaller."
