Me and my older sister sure love him in the mummy and mummy 2 amongst his other roles. glad he's getting a comeback due to dealing with huge trauma in his personal life
He is nominated for a Golden Globe for this Role In The Whale and I really hope he wins and is amazing actor and a nice human being! I am rooting for Brendan Fraser****
I am from India and it was good and well as heartbreaking for me to see him in the series: " Line of Descent". He is such a talented actor yet for many years he was not recognized as much as he should have been. Still he kept on giving his heart and soul into everything he was doing. Even when its far below of the range of acting this man posseses. Still grounded and humble. His eyes speaks of the struggle and pain he had gone through for year even when his face is smiling. Yes. He is a rare gem.
Wow, what a great home! And I love the way it's just a home. Not pretentious. He didn't even let them blow away all the autumn leaves that had fallen on his deck.
I worked with Brendan on BLAST FROM THE PAST!!!!!! he is so genuine and kind...humble.....he sat at our table with a few of my friends to eat lunch with us everyday! it was so cool...all he wanted was to be treated normal....and we did just that! such a nice guy
I liked this comment before watching the video for some reason and assumed you meant metaphorically built the interviewer a fire lmao I was like "that's deep"...
He seems like a very grounded and decent human being. Im gen-x and always had such a crush on him. Love seeing him in a role that isnt easy and expected from him.
Brendan deserves every OUNCE of support and love he is receiving. It’s about damn time. Though the film he stars in is just fine (IMO) It’s HIS PERFORMANCE that is dynamite. Never seen anything like it. I hope he wins everything, as he has won the hearts of Hollywood and his fans never left him!!! Thank you CBS.
Brendan Fraser is a real humble,down to earth guy.Talented,funny,sexy,with a pure heart.Even tho he is famous,he has not lost himself.As long as he stays true to himself ,he will be happy,content,and go a long way.

He's always been one of my favorite Hollywood people. He's always has seemed genuine and humble. I'm so glad for him to have a come back. I like Chris Prat like Brendan, just seem like really good people.
Starring roles again? Not likely. He was lucky to get this one. No, he's past his prie physically and no longer a kid, and that usually spells character roles.
@@bophreyhumgart2953 So were Jack Nicholson, Robert DeNiro, Paul Sorvino, Joe Pesci, Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, Al Pacino, Jason Statham, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Keanu Reeves, Robert Downey Jr, and Clint Eastwood all past their prime, and no longer a kid? Aging is a part of life, and one would hope to still be found attractive, but I'm assuming you're rather young?
As someone who've not seen The Whale yet, I think his best drama so far was the 1994 With Honors alongside Joe Pesci. I love that movie to death. That movie ought to earn some Oscar accolades at least some recognition. His portrayal as a Harvard student evolved from being arrogant to being vulnerable.
Brandon is a gentle soul. His charactors in movies are mostly oblivious to sick reality of this unkind world. I think he is in real life he is the same way.
He's looks so much like my brother in the movie that it's hard to see him but I still love Brendan and can see that he did the character with respect and not malice. I miss my brother everyday and wish I could hug him. I don't know if I'll ever get to see the movie in its entirety but sincerely doubt Brendan was disrespectful.
I will definitely watch this movie, the trailer alone got to me. I am already a big fan of Brendan Fraser, have watched every movie he has made. He truly deserves the accolades, he should get the Oscar.
Years ago, I was introduced to Brendan (not in real life, unfortunately) in a movie on TV called 'Guilty Until Proven Innocent'. This was the first time I had seen him as I think it was one of his first movies, if not his first ever. I was amazed with him in the movie, and I was happily surprised several years later when I watched Encino Man and I saw him again. I have followed his career since. I adore this man and am glad to see him doing so well. I have yet to see The Whale but I am anxiously awaiting it
It's great to see Brendan Fraser back in the movie business! He was always a favorite, and I had wondered where he'd gone. I wasn't aware of the traumatic incident he suffered that caused him to disappear, but I sure am glad he has taken his life back! I'm looking forward to seeing his new movie. ⭐️💙
My favorite of Brendan Fraser's performances is still in "School Ties." He was fantastic in that role! The emotional range he performed,seemingly with ease, was phenomenal to watch. I have been a big fan ever since...
i need to see this movie for personal reasons about a man i used to know exactly like The Whale. Although i haven't seen this movie yet, i'm sure i'll love it. Break a Leg to one of my favorite actors! Brendan Fraser, I wish you nothing but success!!
For the character he portrayed, people in the real world tend to look at this kind of art form as an attack on the obese. He was showing us the other side of the health issue. We that are obese should not he shamed and bashed and bullied about telling our stories. Even the actor himself has had weight issues for a number of years. Glad he wrote the book, teleplay, script and did the movie on the subject. Kuddos, Mr. Fraser.
I'm sure he has no desire to win a Golden Globe considering it was the leader of the HFPA that assaulted him and thereafter black listed him from Hollywood. He's already announced he wont be attending or acknowledging their award if he were to be nominated.
@@phyllishall27 that would defeat the point. If it wasn’t SAG (screen actor guild) members, the actual actors in the business, voting on the award then it would be meaningless. If it wasn’t the members of The Academy (the directors, actors, DOP’s, costume designers, production designers, sound workers, etc of the film industry from around the world) voting on the Oscars the award would lose its meaning.
@@phyllishall27 I completely understood what you said. And my point was if general audiences did the voting, I believe that would make such an award meaningless. As I said, it would defeat the point. These awards have value because of the people voting on them.
He's a wonderful actor, and I've always been an admirer of his talent. The American was a good movie. And the one w Peter O'Toole. I can't remember the title of it. Glad to see him back.
Not since Schindler's List have I gotten as emotional as I did seeing Fraser in The Whale...it will be the performance of the Decade!! Another great role to an underappreciated film is Montgomery Kessler in With Honors.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ I’m sure he feels great to have such great reaction from all who Love him. He seems like a humble kind person ( down to earth ) great actor hope to see him in more movies 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This man deserves an Academy Award and a phenomenal comeback. I grew up as a kid in the 90’s in aww of his beauty in George of the jungle. I used to rewind the scene multiple times when he got out of the shower 😜 😬 😉 💀 Hahaha
I agree. Not a ton of people I know have seen it. Back when I was in middle school and high-school I wanted to be in a band like that. And that movie was one of my favorites.
I saw this movie. The last 30 mins is something like requiem for a dream where it all spirals down into chaos. it was very hard to watch but great movie
Brendan Fraser is a gem! Always has been. I’m glad to see him back. Love that guy!

Mr. Fraser lives in my area. I have seen him many times. He is always gracious. I hope the good times continue.
That’s awesome 👏
@Brendan Fraser George of the Jungle 😁 I will confess to having seen The Mummy over 20 times. Thank you sir!
@Brendan Fraser Westchester County all my life. You have made my day. 😁

I've always rooted for Brendan Fraser and am SO HAPPY that he won an Oscar💯💯
And the Oscar goes to ... SO HAPPY for this lovely man.
He is a true gentleman and very humble. So glad he is back

Respect to this man. Amazing actor. Made me cry

He’s such a gem and I only hope the best for him also roles he deserves
I liked this comment before watching the video for some reason and assumed you meant metaphorically built the interviewer a fire lmao I was like "that's deep"...
I've never been so happy to see a comments section with 99.99% positive, happy for someone else energy. He truly is a national treasure.
A genuinely nice guy in a business where that is rare, he definitely deserves this comeback!☺
Such a humble and kind man. Welcome back, Brendan.
He's so down to earth and courageous. I really hope to see more of him.
He will be in Scorsese's next film.
I'm Proud of Him. Grew up watching Brendan Fraser's Movies. My childhood hero. Still is
Same!! ❤
He seems like a very grounded and decent human being. Im gen-x and always had such a crush on him. Love seeing him in a role that isnt easy and expected from him.
His performance was completely real and emotional. If he is not at least nominated idk what to think.
This. Movie. Was. A. Masterpiece!
Brendan Fraser nailed a phenomenal performance. Bravo 👏🏼!
He was fantastic!Always loved him!❤So happy to see him😍
Just saw this movie and I gotta say, Damn, its great to have Brendan back :)

I love him and am so glad he's acting again!
Brendan is such a beautiful man, he is so genuine a rare thing in Hollywood.
I applaud Brendan's courage! This was a beautiful and inspiring interview.
I’m so happy for him.. I want him to keep flourishing!
If anyone deserves a comeback in Hollywood, it's Brenden Fraser
YES

Brendan Fraser can now add "Oscar winner" after his name. May he continue to enjoy great success.

He is amazing. Love him. Deserves an Oscar
My wife is slowly being driven to insanity because I cannot shut up about how excited I am for this movie 😂
I was once obese and I don't find anything offensive about his portrayal. He's a talented actor; glad to see him make a comeback!
Congratulations to you this film inspired my friend loose weight too she was 245 she is now 130 it’s the inspirational message of the film that counts

Get the attention because both men are getting noticed. Fraser worked very well with Ford. I would love to see them both work in a movie again
I love him and I'm glad he's back
Love Brendan Fraser!❤

But School Ties will always be my favorite film of his. He's still as handsome as ever- inside and out.
I like Looney Tunes.

I just watched School Ties again this weekend !! One of my favorites
I totally respect him right now, I mean for all those years that went wrong, glad he's back and came forward. I can't wait to see that movie!
I love this man so much.
I saw the film today.
Amazing and Extraordinary.
Brendan will Win the Oscar.
