Shaun Parkes
Shaun Parkes sets the stage in The Mummy Returns as Izzy, the proprietor of Magic Carpet Airways. Izzy is a desert entrepreneur who doesn't mind taking a reasonable risk but greatly prefers not to be shot. Experience has taught him this---experience with Rick O'Connell.

His many television credits include the lead in British Channel 4's The Lock, the six-part spin-off of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. He has played central roles in The Visitor, Randall & Hopkirk, The Plastic Man and Turning World. Parkes has appeared in a great deal of theatre including Chips With Everything at the Royal National Theatre, Cheek by Jowl's Duchess of Malfi in the West End, and a variety of Royal Court productions. He is also an excellent baritone.
