Born and raised in Minnesota, Stephen Sommers went on to attend St. John’s University before transferring to the University of Seville in Spain. After graduating, he spent the next several years managing rock bands throughout Europe. Relocating to Los Angeles, Sommers enrolled in the University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts and spent the next three years earning a Masters Degree in Film Production. Upon writing and directing an award-winning student film, Perfect Alibi, he was granted the opportunity to write and direct his first feature-length motion picture – a story set in the world of high school drag racing entitled Catch Me If You Can. From there, Sommers went on to create such well-known and beloved adaptations as The Adventures of Huck Finn and Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, both for Walt Disney Pictures. He also wrote and executive produced Disney’s adventure film Tom and Huck before returning to the director’s chair for the suspense-thriller Deep Rising. The next year, Sommers wrote, directed and produced the first installment of The Mummy franchise for Universal Studios. That film and its sequel, The Mummy Returns, have grossed over eight-hundred and forty million dollars worldwide. His next monster blockbuster was the action-adventure epic Van Helsing, released in 2004, which did over three-hundred million dollars at the box office. Following his producing duties on The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor – which made the trilogy a billion dollar franchise - Sommers wrote, directed and produced G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra for Paramount Studios. Stephen currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife and their two daughters. Bio from official homepage.
van helsing hunting and kill monsters & evil😈 and stop all those who riseses In a world reborn from ancient curses and hidden empires, Gabriel Van Helsing (Keanu Reeves) walks between light and shadow. Once a priest and scholar of forbidden lore, he became the last weapon of mankind — a relentless hunter sworn to destroy every creature born of darkness. When the dead begin to rise and monstrous forces reclaim the night, Helsing follows a trail of blood and myth stretching from the ruins of Transylvania to the neon cathedrals of a modern Europe. Vampires, demons, witches, and corrupted souls — all fall beneath his silver blades and holy fire. But a greater evil waits — the Risen King, an immortal born before time, determined to awaken a new age of monsters. To stop the resurrection, Van Helsing must face not only the creatures of the abyss — but the darkness within himself.
