Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa plays Kabai Singh, leader of the Sengh Brotherhood (the name of the brotherhood was changed from Singh to Sengh in the movie), and Catherine Zeta-Jones plays Sala, leader of the Sky Band, a group of female air-pirates.īilly Zane took his role very seriously, and pumped iron for over a year to fill the Phantom's tight spandex costume. The film is loosely based on Lee Falk's first two Phantom stories, The Singh Brotherhood and The Sky Band. The search for the skulls becomes even more complicated for the Phantom when he discovers that one of Drax's henchmen, Quill, is the killer of his father.

In the process of tracking down the skulls, The Phantom also meets his former girlfriend Diana Palmer ( Kristy Swanson) while tracking down the skulls, who proves to be an invaluable help for him. He has to get the three skulls (one made of gold, one made of silver, and one made of jade) before madman Xander Drax ( Treat Williams), a power-hungry rich playboy, finds them. The film tells us the story of The Phantom's search for a weapon of doom, the Skulls of Touganda. The role of the Phantom is passed on from father to son through centuries, which causes people to believe it is the same, seemingly immortal man, giving him names like 'The Ghost Who Walks' and 'The Man Who Never Dies'.

When he grows to be a man, he adopts the identity of The Phantom, a masked avenger. He swears to devote his life to the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms. The legend of the Phantom starts when a young boy, the last survivor of a pirate attack, is washed ashore on a mysterious island called Bengalla.
