Fan Casting Mathias Parrish in The Mummy 1: Rise Of The Fallen Princess

Mathias is the incarnation of Mata, the one who was once Ahmanet's lover in the past, but who died because the princess's father knew about it and sent his soldiers to kill him so that his daughter would be a cold and warrior queen, the cost was that Ahmanet in the end tried to kill her father but in the end he was sent in a tomb where he would die. That is why Ahmanet has a bond and connection with Mathias, and why she calls him Setepai (the chosen one, translated), making that as the movie progresses, both would have a connection feeling each other, besides understanding that she is not a threat.
