Kate Liszka, an associate professor at Cal State San Bernardino who specializes in Egyptian history and culture, served as a consultant on the Disney movie “Under Wraps,” which premiered earlier this month on the Disney Channel and Disney+.
Listed in the closing credits as “Egyptologist,” Liszka gave filmmakers suggestions and advice about the script, sets, costumes and translations of hieroglyphs, according to a statement on the university’s website.
“It was fun providing Disney with suggestions and corrections on the design of sarcophagi and coffins,” Liszka said in the statement. “I’m happy to have had the chance to share my knowledge about ancient Egypt in this new medium.”
“Under Wraps” is a remake of the 1997 Disney movie of the same name. It’s about three friends who accidentally revive a mummy who has come to life for three days before Halloween.
