Evelyn "Evie" Carnahan O'Connell from 'The Mummy', 'The Mummy Returns', and 'Maria Bello in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor'
Evelyn Carnahan O'Connell (Rachel Weisz in'The Mummy', 'The Mummy Returns', and 'Maria Bello in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor') is the second protagonist of the series, a clever, intelligent, but clumsy Egyptologist in Cairo's Museum of Antiquities. She, along with Rick and her brother Jonathan, travels to the lost city of Hamunaptra, where she hopes to find a rare, ancient book. The book of Amun-Ra. When some Americans find a book (not the golden book of Amun-Ra, but in fact the Book of the Dead which gives life), Evie steals the book from the sleeping American Egyptologist and reads a page of it. This unintentionally resurrects the titular mummy, Imhotep. Imhotep wants to use her body as a vessel to resurrect his long-dead lover, Anck-Su-Namun, and he takes Evie captive. Upon being rescued, she reads a page from the book of Amun-Ra, rendering Imhotep mortal. Rick then pierces Imhotep in the stomach. While he dies, he returns to his original undead form as a rotting corpse with the final parting words which Evie translates as "Death is only the beginning". Evie shows little fighting skill but much bravery, such as when she attempts to shoot a Medjai with Rick's gun, and fights Anck-Su-Namun. In the first part of the film she thinks Rick is a "no good, complete scoundrel" and states that she "doesn't like him one bit". However, as the film progresses he slowly gains her trust and they eventually fall in love.
