Brendan Fraser is such a talent and pure soul. Blessed to have his films raise me and can’t wait for the future.
@II M4X II I like your timesplitters profile picture
@II M4X II like a babe who’s father left.. him in the woods.
@II M4X II Lmao
🤟🤟
@II M4X II who hurt you? lmao
This man is gold and seems genuinely like a good person, so no wonder hollywood blacklisted him and did him dirty. He didn’t deserve any of the stuff he had to go through over the years, God bless him!
Repent to Jesus Christ “Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.””
John 14:21 NIV
Y
Hear hear!
I think it was his wife that did him dirty
Edit: Ex-wife
What happened to him ?
How did Hollywood do him dirty? And why?
Brendan is the reason why The Mummy and The Mummy Returns are two of my all-time favorite films. So glad he’s bouncing back in a big way, if there’s anyone who deserves this kind of love and attention it’s him.
@Christopher Brolumbus bitter sad little dude
I’ll die on the hill that the first Mummy is one of the most underrated movies of all time. Action adventure, horror, comedy, and they hit every point perfectly. Such a great movie.
He carries himself with love and grace. He just makes you feel comfortable and interested in what he says. I am so happy to see him on the big screen again. He is a true trailblazer for his acts in self-advocacy, and he will be remembered as such. He deserves all the love and respect the world has to offer. ❤️
A true babe in the woods.
Its absurd how humble this man is. He’s up there with Robin Williams as actors who my generation grew up loving, having him back is such an awesome thing to experience.
Brendan was my childhood action hero. Being a big history nerd, The Mummy was one of my favourite movies. I love seeing him coming back. What a genuinely lovely guy, the way he talks about other people and can articulate his experiences. Please let the fans have another Mummy film!!!
Same. Now he’s just fat and ugly tho
George of the Jungle was my little brother’s favorite movie. After he died, whenever I miss him too much I put it on and laugh because it’s hilarious and I can still hear him laugh at his favorite parts. I miss you Josh, thank you Mr. Fraser for all the laughs. Loved everything you’ve done and can’t wait for your future roles.
George of the jungle is an actually really funny movie
@Jaya Thakur you + men = love
@Xelthia vice no…like you…with unresolved daddy issues… Now … I am going to act like you are invisible and avoid you like every one else is doing…ok?
@Jaya Thakur like you who likes men
@Xelthia vice can you just be a bit humane and respectful and throw your pick up line not in a thread where people are literally paying respect to the memory of their loved ones?
A massive testament to why people love him is the fact he probably spoke more about the people around him and involved with each of the movies, more than himself and his participation. And in such a genuine and modest way.
Brendan is so kind. He spent the entire interview applauding others and mentioning their achievements. This man is just incredible and I hope he knows how unbelievably loved he is.
Was just going to comment the same thing!
What about Mrs. Winterbourne & Looney Tunes?! Love Brendan Fraser! I can’t wait for his role in Killers of the Flower Moon!
He cried. He’s real.
@naw dude who peed in your Cheerios you sad little gremlin?
@naw dude wow calm down maybe christ start a podcast or stfu
This man is a true gem. Talks about his experiences while holding all the people he’s worked with, including his favorite camel guy, in such high regards. Very glad I watched this. Thank you for all the entertainment, Brendan! Can’t wait to see what other projects are in the works!
