So y’all just gonna skip one of the funniest movies he made Monkeybone y’all just gonna skip that alright I mean to me that movie was hilarious but that’s just me alright cool
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.
He knows cuz y'all can't stop saying it. It's actually a bit insane. It's strengthening the idea that how England has its royals America has its stars. I think y'all would actually kow tow to them
I met Brendan when I was working as a deckhand on a local tour boat. I ran into him at an island buffet. He had taken a private boat to the island, and out of the hundreds of passengers I had serviced that day, he was the only one to ask me how my day was going. What a guy.
Brendan and Keanu are two of the most humble celebrities ever. They seem so genuine and still have this child like excitement for their passion. Wish they would act in a buddy comedy together.
Variety did a great video where Adam Sandler interviewed Brendan. Hopefully we can get another one with Hollywood's most humble people. Keanu interviewing Brendan or the other way around. I love 'em both!
Brendan Fraser gives credit to everyone else, remembers everyone he worked with. He even remembers the elephant's name. The man is a national treasure.
He must have said something logical or factual one time, causing Hollywood elites to cancel him for not being their slave and 24/7 news parrot. They were wrong, nobody forgot about the legend.
Brendan is such a good guy he can somehow explain how bad the CGI was for the Scorpion King without insulting the workers or the film itself. What a class act.
But I also like how he said the bad CGI was part of the charm. I agree with him. If The Mummy 2 was remastered with a more realistic, proper-looking Dwayne, people would complain that the magic is lost.
Corridor digital a great vfx TH-cam channel always says 9 times out of ten a bad cgi shot in a movie is due to time constraints but I also agree it’s adds a special charm to the movie
He's one of those rare actors that the entire internet will forever support, protect and cherish. He's endlessly humble and kind, very happy to see how everyone is towards him
Met him at a convention a few months back. Got his autograph and his assistants kept telling people to move along and not talk to him or ask him for a customized autograph. He listened to every person and customized every autograph if he was asked. He made eye contact with everyone and he was so appreciative of each person in line. Absolutely fantastic person.
@@Charge183IF they said that because he was extremely popular and they wanted to get through the line as quickly as possible, they got a cut of the autographs so they got paid more if he signed more stuff. But when he signed my George of the Jungle poster and wrote "java Java java" because I said it was me and sisters my favorite scene as a kid, he looked at me after, smiled and winked lol everytime he made an appearance he got massive cheers and he cried everytime. He definitely was not getting burned out.
Brendan is such a beautifully thoughtful and articulate person. He expresses himself so genuinely, so effortlessly - it's like spending time with an old friend. If I ever get to meet the man himself, I could die happy.
This whole interview was about him, and all he could talk about was how good everyone else was. He’s such a good soul, I’m glad he’s finally getting the career he deserved
@ledgy69 He didn't have important roles for over a decade because he was blacklisted in Hollywood. He also used to get just comedy and blockbuster roles which tend to not be very well regarded for awards. This is the first time people are taking him seriously.
You can tell how much he identifies with his characters. He even had positive things to say about the CGI team for the scorpion king! What a class act.
@@Mazter1veteran Well he certainly identifies with walking out on his wife and kids for a young guy because he did that in 2007. That young guy has been missing since 2008. His parents in China would like closure.
This man was literally a pillar of my childhood. I had George of the Jungle and the 1st Mummy on repeat for YEARS. Glad he's getting the recognition he deserves!
Back in 2000 my 2 year old fell madly in love with George aka Brendan Fraser 😊. We had the VHS tape in the VCR and watch George of the jungle every single day almost all day long 😀. Brendan Fraser appeared on live with Regis and Kelly promoting the Mummy so of course I had it on the TV. I'm sitting in my chair watching the show Brendan was called out and my little almost 3 year old got star struck... Her little face turned beat red and she ran behind my chair as shy as can be. I think she thought he was in my living room. She was peeking around the chair because she didn't want him to see her 😀. I gotta say... It was probably the most innocent most adorable thing my child experienced at that age. As this was going on in my living room, I was on the phone with my sister so she was getting the full blunt of all that was going on. Everyone in my family knew that my sweet baby was going to marry this man 🤣. So with that my sister tried to reach the station while the show was on to get Brendan to do a shout out to my little darling, she probably would've fainted 😊, my sister was successful getting in touch with the station but couldn't get the message to the hosts fast enough🤷. Oh well, it would've been cute 🤗
It's awesome how much the internet loves Brendan Fraser. Dude just emits good vibes and makes you wanna smile. I'm glad he's back at it and making movies again. His range and talent are insane.
@@chava7263 Pretty sure he was nuked with a lot of emotions after being sexually assaulted by a movie guy(can't remember who it was), a divorce, and some health issues in between, would make anyone take a step back.
The best thing that’s happened in the last 10 years has been Brendan Fraser coming back into the spotlight. This dude is the upper echelon, top tier if you will, of humanity. Even after everything he’s been through, he’s still this kind and humble. I think I can speak for everyone when I say, WE LOVE YOU MAN!
"The very place itself is an important character in the movie." I love that, such an insightful thing to say. The Mummy was hands down one of the best films of the 90s.
Brendan is one of those actors/celebs that really feels like a person, you know? He doesn't put on a face, he's just himself, and that's beautiful. No wonder everyone loves him so much, because he's unfathomably authentic in every way.
Only with Brendan do you get a synopsis of the contributions of everyone when you're interviewing him, about him. I love his appreciation of the team and the collective effort that makes a film. He's a good guy, and absolutely deserves the fame. The absolute passion he has for everything he does and positivity he has. It’s just a joy just to watch an interview like this.
The fact that this video has 3.3 millions views in just two days just proves this man still have tons of fans that never forgot him. It's pretty easy to tell that when you're in situations like this, you did a great job
Man, it is SO good to see Brendan so relaxed and animated. Considering all the crap he has been through, it;s nice to see his personality showing through again.
Came here to say this! Haven't seen him this relaxed and confident while talking in a while. He's definitely opening up and getting comfortable again, lovely to see.
The first Mummy film will always be a genuine classic. The amount of injuries and broken bones he suffered during the trilogy doing his own stunts is horrific. I'm so glad he's back and happy after the utterly gross way he was treated by Hollywood.
IF he suffered such "horrific" injuries, why is he so gung ho to do another one? And who were those guys on set wearing identical costumes? STUNTMEN! He has a long list of them and they know he's full of ****!
George of the jungle was my favorite movie as a kid and I was so little I didn’t even realize what a babe he is. Now I put it on just to admire his beauty. ❤
I can't overstate how much I missed Brendan Fraser. He's always been like this, and it's why he can play those "Babe in the woods" characters so effectively. He emits kindness as his natural rest state. And someone get a script and Rachel Weisz on the phone, let's do the Rick and Evie show one more time!
I actually got goosebumps when he talked about meeting everybody again for the Mummy returns, and talked so vividly about the guys he worked with the previous movie!
This man is perfection. He is so incredibly well-spoken. You can tell he truly means everything he says and he chooses his words so carefully. I love how supportive he is of his castmates and how he speaks so fondly of them.
Not only other people, but places, CGI, everything. And when he does mention himself, he does it in self-deprecating manner which he shouldnt do cause he is an awesome dude in every way :)
In HIS interview, he spent it talking up the other artists he worked with. I fell in love with him when I was a kid and I am in awe of him now. What a man.
I too have grown up watching Brendan Fraser, I only just now really appreciate what an amazing actor he has always been. He has the kindest, softest eyes that shine out his lovely humble nature. I want to go back and watch the movies again........
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. He speaks highly about everyone involved, his interpretation of the characters and scenes, and he is such a humble human being.
It warmed my heart so much when he, without any hesitation, said, “Absolutely,” when asked if he would ever want to return to The Mummy franchise. I was once just a little kid watching those films religiously on a little DVD player… they meant a lot to me. It would be incredible to see him reprise the role of O’Connell once more.
I agree! I was shocked when he mentioned there was a 3rd Mummy movie. But I agree with Brendan, without Rachel it's just not the same. The first two were such classics and they still hold up today because of the characters/actors, writing and comedy timing involved was **chefs kiss**
Despite the many hardships he’s had to go through, he’s still smiling and giving us his unabashedly honest opinions. Humble, funny, kind. I’m living for his comeback ❤️❤️❤️
@@sonnyvarioni1654 You either get up or you stay down. A LOT of people are forced to stay down because of the hardships they face. Don't glorify the hardships. Glorify the people. Brendan is amazing because of what he overcame, not because of the people who did it to him.
Watching Brandon Fraser’s comeback is truly a heartwarming experience… this man has done so much and I’m glad everyone is taking notice and appreciating
I had the honor of meeting Brendan once at a cosplay contest. He is as kind as he appears here. Very sweet. Even asked for MY photo! He took time to speak to all of us cosplayers, always gave compliments, and introduced himself. So humble and courteous. Beyond a gentleman. He is a priceless treasure.
The fact that he describes the mummy as an action horror drama comedy really makes me happy. The mummy is one of my favorite films because I think it hits all those beats at different times. I think it can only be described as an adventure movie.
@@monkeytennis8861 the thing is that he is right: Tom Cruise rocks as an action star. That is like , pratically the only redeemable feature of that actor.
By God, there’s no word in the English language how excited I am to see this legend make a much deserved comeback! He’s been one of my favorite actors since I was a kid. Airheads, George of the Jungle, The Mummy and Journey to the Center of the Earth were my favorite movies of his when I was a kid!
I hope Brendan knows how much we all have missed him, love him, and are all ecstatic that he’s back. He was a huge part of the childhood of an entire generation & will be immortal because of it. Thank you, Brendan. It’s wonderful to have you back.
Brendan is so wildly genuine. The fact he was chewed up and spat out of Hollywood, and he's still this nice is a testament to what a good person he is. We as an audience are happy to see him back, and even more grateful that he seems happy too. 💚
It took him years to get another role because of him bringing up he was sexually assaulted. He had one voice acting job in 2014 and had no other until 2019. His ex took all his money and he was paying 900 thousand in child support.
Even when talking about his OSCAR WINNING performance, he still prefers to elevate those around him. I just don't have the words for how wholesome this man is.
To this day, Rick O'Connell remains the most lovable badass in an adventure film I have seen. The first 2 Mummy Films were perfection to me as a kid. And that still hasn't changed. And it just makes me happy that Brendan is happy with his life again. Forever may it continue.
Same! As much as I like Brendan… the third one was where the mummy franchise lost my attention. Not because of Brendan, but because of where it went… where the new director took it.
The way he handles this interview is unlike any other. Rather than his ego flaunting stories about when he worked on these films… It’s him talking about how amazing his costars, directors and locations were. The personal stories are more about what he learned. It’s honestly refreshing and encouraging. This man is too great.❤
I was just thinking the same thing. He is so humble, hardly talks about himself, and is so enthusiastic about about the characters, stories, and people involved in the films.
He is truly humble, and I think he is still a bit shocked he ever got a role... it seems he still feels a bit undeserving, which is so wrong. He did deserve all and more. So glad he is back on the scene.
A lot of actors do this. Chris Hemsworth does it ALL the time. Doesn’t make them inauthentic but it’s a common move. Makes you more likable to heap praise on others.
Personal favourite is when he was defending and buttering up his CGI crew on the Mummy despite the CGI wasn't being good. Other celebs would have used that to make fun of the CGI team and chastises them for not doing a good job. He instead sympathise with them and argued that the cartoonish CGI is part of the charm of the film which what makes it so special to begin with. I just love when celebrities acknowledge the effort that goes behind the CGI.
I’m so glad Brendan is now getting the love he deserves. The Mummy films and George of the Jungle were massive parts of my childhood, and looking back, it was all Brendan. He made those movies really fun with his screen presence and comedy. The Whale just proves the man is a wonderful actor, and despite everything he’s gone through, he remains uncommonly kind and funny. I’m front row for the Brenaissance.
Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!!! I rarely go a month without wanting to watch The Mummy. He has a natural chemistry with almost every single actor/actress he worked with. It's not a common gift in an actor.
I’m so happy to see him making a comeback. He’s always been a great actor, and he’s always been generous with the praise of his costars, and it’s nice to see that hasn’t changed.
I agree. People knocked him for getting older. Like, seriously? The guy has nothing to prove and I love how kind and humble he seems. Everyone will grow old one day if they're lucky. Do so gracefully and enjoy life.
He could have just avoided commenting on the awful Scorpion King cgi, but he went out of his way to mention the cgi people were rushed to do it last minute, and he gave a convincing argument for keeping it if the film is ever remastered. Good dude.
He's Canadian, that's why. I say that with all due respect to the incredibly high moral standards of their country, wish the USA had more of his humility.
I love how he mentions himself not being funny. Yet, his corky upbeat humor had me smiling the entire video. This guy has no earthly idea the impact he has made on so many people. I wish I could get a chance to have a simple conversation. And instead of him praising others and thanking others for opportunities and experiences, and rather let him know how incredibly thankful people are for what he’s done and continues to do. Thank you!! You’ve truly helped shape the lives of so many people.
Did you ever got the chance of watching a DVD ou Bluray copy of the Mummy? The best part is his audio commentary track. Think about a 2hrs version of this video, but focus on the Mummy. Its AWESOME.
The fact he can still intricately remember so many details and feelings about the films he's been in, and just how much he gives credit to others over himself, really shows how great of an actor and person Brendan is. I will never get tired of seeing this man win whenever he can.
@@darth420vader Some actors don't even remember the co-stars they share a screen with. They just say the lines and move on. Gwyneth Paltrow surprised Sabastian Stan by not remembering him at all.
Brendan goes so much further in depth about the process of film making and his appreciation of his coworkers than most of the celebrities I've seen do these interviews. His appreciation for his job and the people surrounding him really shines through...
The absolute humanity of Brendan Fraser is deeply moving. He lauds the creations of others, he shows true interest in his performances, the complete heartfelt nature of his honesty, it warms the heart truly.
Yet just by the start of this video you are proven wrong. How can one act in a movie have a main role yet still fail to realize what the movie is about and what genre is it suppose to be ... It's a fantasy-adventure-comedy, how hard is it to realize that ... If he is so interested and invested into something how TF does he not know wtf is the movie he PLAY A MAIN ROLE IN ?!!!! So yeah, think again what he actually is.
This man needs to know how much he means to us. Definitely honored being raised to his movies. The Mummy Trilogy, George of The Jungle, Journey to the center, and even looney tunes! Such a legend
The interview was about him and he nonstop talking about everyone else but him. I love all of his movies and how sensational he was I those movies. His voice, his funny character, his action character, his amazing acting, it's just an absolute delight for us his fans to watch.
What struck me while watching this is how warmly he speaks of his peers, and the genuine appreciation he has for them and for being involved. The man is a class act, I’m excited to see him working again and hope we get to see more of him!
I think we should put him and Keanu Reeves in a room and have a Nice-Off, no winner, just heartwarming goodness for a change. I don't understand why being a decent person is so rare but here we are.
My father was part of the crew working on the third mummy movie and he always praised Brendan Fraser and how down-to-earth he was. He's really happy to see him again on screen❤
I really hope Brendan Fraser reads the comments on this video. He mentioned that he wasn’t aware so many people were super excited to see him return and how much love and support his fans have for him. He’s such a humble, talented man. He really embodies what an actor should be.
I really respect how he highlights all the people who worked on the films, even if the films are a little silly. He just shows a great reverence for everyone involved and that's really cool to see. His joy and enthusiasm are both so infectious to watch
With every movie Brendan Frasier thanks his castmates and praises how much they elevated the script, the performances and his acting...what a humble and kind man truly.
he praises his castmates and production, but IMO, it's really what Brendan Fraiser brings to the film that reflects on other actors and gives them more to act with.
Time & time again in so many interviews you’ll hear Brendan praise the talents of his co-workers & fellow actors, often crediting many with his own opportunity to be able to perform well in any given movie. It’s so refreshingly earnest & it comes across as Brendan’s genuine desire to always acknowledge those around him & how he’s grateful for everyone. Much respect 🙌
Brendan Fraser was such a massive part of my childhood. The first mummy movie is almost imprinted in my brain. I grew up on that movie. Thank you for everything you have ever done Brendan, for real. You are a huge part of a lot of peoples memories and lives!:)
Brendan's demeanor reminds me of a quote, "Humility isn't thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.". Brendan perfectly embodies this quote the way he sings praises of his coworkers without hesitation. I love this guy so much
When they asked him if he would return to The Mummy franchise and he gave a resounding yes and then asked " Do you have a script" my heart jumped for joy! I felt like a kid again going to see one of the greatest summer block busters!! Someone please get this man a script for The Mummy 4!!!
Yes please! I honestly think he's going to get nominated for an oscar/Emmy for The Whale....movie looks good already and he only said 5 things in the trailer
His voice is somehow so rich with emotions, so vulnerable als if he has his heart in his mouth while he's speaking. I sometimes got a little teary-eyed when he talked so full of excitment, so positiviely about others and all the things he loves and respects. So honest and pure. I can only assume all this though :P since I don't know him but to me it really feels this way while listening and watching this video.
He was such a outwardly beautiful youth, but I think we’ve discovered that Brendan Fraser is just an all around beautiful man, inside and out. So kind and generous to everyone he’s worked with. Not just costars, but suit actors, SFX, makeup and costumes. You can tell he just loved the art of movies!
@Fraser, The Big Fat Fraud Do you see yourself? Really, please take a long hard look in the mirror, and ask yourself: "What am I doing? Why am I doing all this? I'm better than this." Move on. You're making a fool of yourself, and it's not doing a bit of good in the world. Do better. Good luck.
@@fraserthebigfatfraud858You are a prime example of what’s wrong with this world!!! Toxic abusive trolls who think only there opinion matters and are always right,While everyone else is wrong…. Jog on you drip
I swear Brendan is right up there with Keanu Reeves when it comes to actors you can’t help but love. Even if you tried to dislike him, or hate his movies, you just can’t not like the guy.
He seems like such a genuinely nice guy. The way he praised the people around him and describes how he's just happy to be part of it all, is really inspiring.
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.
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.
Brendan Fraser made The Mummy films really stand out. Nobody could have done his role better. A perfect choice to be honest. I hope his comeback really allows him to shine again
He's a national treasure. He spoke so much about the people he worked with and you can tell he appreciates every moment he had with the cast and crew on every film.
What a beautiful person. Sensitive, empathetic, gracious, generous, grateful… He spent the whole interview saying the most wonderful things about the people he’s worked with. I teared up at certain points because you just can’t help but feel your heart grow as you listen to his stories. The world needs more people like him.
So refreshing to see someone who isn't consumed by ego and narcissism speak about his journey through life. You can see how empathetic he is, kind, reflective, personal and has such strong resilience and depth of character.
I love this man’s personality more than maybe any other actor I’ve ever watched. The heartbreak, the redemption, the love and passion he puts into everything he does, ever the obviously goofy stuff like frickin George of the jungle and Dudley Do-right. NEVER change Brendan, you are perfect the way you are.
Brendan has such a special place in my heart because of george of the jungle and the mummy movies. Seeing who he is as a person and not just an actor is beautiful. He is such a pure person and I strive for that.
It seems like Brendan's life has been quite difficult at times, and yet he still spoke about his past experiences with so much gratitude and humility. We are fortunate to have him. I hope he sees some of these kind comments on this video and knows how much we appreciate him and are rooting for him!
Brendan calling himself the least funny person and then proceeding to make me smile and giggle for most of the interview just like he did in his movies when I was a kid. Love him. 🥺❤️
This man gives credit to the actors in animal suits, he remembers all the important details, there's no ego to this guy, it's all just love for what we does. No matter what you're doing and in what industry, Brendan Fraser's a role model for how to be as a person.
@Brendan Fraser vs The Truth You really sound like someone who would go out of their way to cause bodily harm to him because of this weird one-sided feud you have going on.
@@homelander746 I cannot imagine putting that much energy into hating someone. Feel like him and my mother would have gotten along in their ability to obsess so intensely.
bedazzled is one of my favorites movies I loved rewatching it when I was a kid and all this time I thought this actor was dead smh🤦🏽 Brendan is an incredible actor so underrated he makes it feel authentic and real his performance in the whale is just incredible I hope I could see more of him in the future more life to him ❤
How did we lose this gem of a man for so many years? His commitment to the character is impeccable. The way he remembers such specific details of the character’s personalities, regardless of how developed they were or not, says so much about the care he took to prepare for each role. I’m so glad he’s back, and that he’s stronger by the minute. Much love, Brendan.
I like the Brendan acknowledges all the pitfalls and challenges of his movies (i.e. the bad CGI, Rachel not coming back, etc.) in such a positive way. Dude is an absolute legend and a delight. I bet Brendan would be a great dinner guest.
His decision to speak to and boast about supporting characters through this whole piece really speaks to his character. This segment is about *him* and *his career* and he chooses to expound upon how impactful the people around him (especially those normally not featured - like the suit actors in George of the Jungle) is so impressive to see. What a beautiful and humble professional.
I love listening to him talk.. I could listen to him for hours.. he sound's so sincere and humble.. I Love you Brendan Fraser.. I saw "The Mummy" when I was a kid and it's been my favorite movie ever since.
He shows so much respect towards his co-stars, to the CGI crew, his fans and the directors. It truly shows what kind of person he is. I hope he gets more roles and better ones. He deserves it.
This is my favorite "Iconic Characters" breakdown ever. Fraser seems like such a genuinely nice person who appreciates his career to the fullest. Very wholesome interview.
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.
He's looking and sounding much better than few years ago when he came out of hiding. Nice to see, Brendan was a big part of our childhood and teenage years with his awesome flicks, legend.
Lots of his movies accompanied me throughout my childhood and teenage years even my young adulthood and have always been very entertaining, he seems to know that a movie, above all, entertains and leaves a very nice taste in your mouth when you finish it
why even go there man? Couldnt just say something nice like "hes looking pretty good". had to go with the backhanded compliment? smh, I guess your comment could have been worse.
One of my favorite actors growing up :) saw George of the Jungle and the Mummy in Tneaters. Two fantastic movies that introduced me to great talent. So happy to see him back in business. He was always a bright light.

Brendan and Keanu are two of the most humble celebrities ever. They seem so genuine and still have this child like excitement for their passion. Wish they would act in a buddy comedy together.
Variety did a great video where Adam Sandler interviewed Brendan. Hopefully we can get another one with Hollywood's most humble people. Keanu interviewing Brendan or the other way around. I love 'em both!
This idea needs to get to a studio executive ASAP.
Both Canadian
There's a meme that says if Brendan Fraser and Keanu Reeves starred in a movie with no explanation just called "Movie" we'd all watch it 😂 it's true
It's the Canadian in them.😁

1.1 M views in just 14 hours. For an actor who's not in the big screen for years, this just shows how much he is actually loved.
Hollywood tried to tell us he wasn't relevant meanwhile he has a massive fanbase who's always wanted him in the spotlight
He must have said something logical or factual one time, causing Hollywood elites to cancel him for not being their slave and 24/7 news parrot. They were wrong, nobody forgot about the legend.
Actually TH-cam fabricates views and also puts such videos in everyone's page. They are a corrupt entity and are pure evil.
Because he’s such a phenomenal actor who could lumped into the action-comedy genre because of the Mummy. Talk about an authentic acting style.
I think it's just curiosity not actually "love".
This man is a national treasure and deserves all the love, support, film roles, etc. I hope we get a Mummy 4 and takes us back to Egypt.
We technically did get a mummy 4 the one with Tom cruise
@@KingKillerew, no. That one doesn’t count.
@@KingKiller k

Brendan is such a good guy he can somehow explain how bad the CGI was for the Scorpion King without insulting the workers or the film itself. What a class act.
But I also like how he said the bad CGI was part of the charm. I agree with him. If The Mummy 2 was remastered with a more realistic, proper-looking Dwayne, people would complain that the magic is lost.
Corridor digital a great vfx TH-cam channel always says 9 times out of ten a bad cgi shot in a movie is due to time constraints but I also agree it’s adds a special charm to the movie
its almost never the cgi teams fault. they are used and abused and neglected for ever and ever. Then, they take the fall and be the escape goats.

Very much do. He deserves his respect for the role he played in a lot of our childhoods and he is such a sweet man that had a hard road
Met him at a convention a few months back. Got his autograph and his assistants kept telling people to move along and not talk to him or ask him for a customized autograph. He listened to every person and customized every autograph if he was asked. He made eye contact with everyone and he was so appreciative of each person in line. Absolutely fantastic person.
Maybe they asked everyone not to make requests because they knew he would fulfill them all and get himself at risk of burning out.
@@Charge183IF they said that because he was extremely popular and they wanted to get through the line as quickly as possible, they got a cut of the autographs so they got paid more if he signed more stuff. But when he signed my George of the Jungle poster and wrote "java Java java" because I said it was me and sisters my favorite scene as a kid, he looked at me after, smiled and winked lol everytime he made an appearance he got massive cheers and he cried everytime. He definitely was not getting burned out.

@@Will_Parker Ah. Nice to know. Thanks for sharing your impressions!
Being the 1990’s/early 2000’s kid that I am.. Brendan Fraser was a huge part of my childhood. I’m glad to see him making a comeback.
Same.

The man is 100% a zennial icon.
He’s making a comeback?
Brendan is such a beautifully thoughtful and articulate person. He expresses himself so genuinely, so effortlessly - it's like spending time with an old friend. If I ever get to meet the man himself, I could die happy.

@@ifyouonlyknew811 doubtful. you can tell when people are faking it
This whole interview was about him, and all he could talk about was how good everyone else was. He’s such a good soul, I’m glad he’s finally getting the career he deserved
What do you mean finally lol
@ledgy69 He didn't have important roles for over a decade because he was blacklisted in Hollywood. He also used to get just comedy and blockbuster roles which tend to not be very well regarded for awards. This is the first time people are taking him seriously.
He’s so genuine
Where was his AIRHEADS commentary?
He’s such a selfless person. That’s why he’s so well loved.
You can tell how much he identifies with his characters. He even had positive things to say about the CGI team for the scorpion king! What a class act.
Seriously.
Yeah. You can really tell he identifies as a whale in the movie the whale
@@Mazter1veteran your comment did well… I guess you’re not as funny as you thought.
@@Mazter1veteran
Well he certainly identifies with walking out on his wife and kids for a young guy because he did that in 2007. That young guy has been missing since 2008. His parents in China would like closure.
This man was literally a pillar of my childhood. I had George of the Jungle and the 1st Mummy on repeat for YEARS. Glad he's getting the recognition he deserves!
Me too!
ME TOO!
Back in 2000 my 2 year old fell madly in love with George aka Brendan Fraser 😊. We had the VHS tape in the VCR and watch George of the jungle every single day almost all day long 😀. Brendan Fraser appeared on live with Regis and Kelly promoting the Mummy so of course I had it on the TV. I'm sitting in my chair watching the show Brendan was called out and my little almost 3 year old got star struck... Her little face turned beat red and she ran behind my chair as shy as can be. I think she thought he was in my living room. She was peeking around the chair because she didn't want him to see her 😀. I gotta say... It was probably the most innocent most adorable thing my child experienced at that age.
As this was going on in my living room, I was on the phone with my sister so she was getting the full blunt of all that was going on. Everyone in my family knew that my sweet baby was going to marry this man 🤣. So with that my sister tried to reach the station while the show was on to get Brendan to do a shout out to my little darling, she probably would've fainted 😊, my sister was successful getting in touch with the station but couldn't get the message to the hosts fast enough🤷. Oh well, it would've been cute 🤗
hol ay oh hol ay estim es bach
I homemade cosplayed as Rick O’Connell before Superman or Batman
Hearing him say that he'd love to come back to the Mummy franchise honestly made me smile. Would love to see him play Rick O'Connell one more time.
Same!
This time battling either Dracula or the Wolfman. Would make it more interesting.
It's awesome how much the internet loves Brendan Fraser. Dude just emits good vibes and makes you wanna smile. I'm glad he's back at it and making movies again. His range and talent are insane.
Did something happen with him?
@@chava7263 Pretty sure he was nuked with a lot of emotions after being sexually assaulted by a movie guy(can't remember who it was), a divorce, and some health issues in between, would make anyone take a step back.

The best thing that’s happened in the last 10 years has been Brendan Fraser coming back into the spotlight. This dude is the upper echelon, top tier if you will, of humanity. Even after everything he’s been through, he’s still this kind and humble. I think I can speak for everyone when I say, WE LOVE YOU MAN!
I am a fan of his movies and he does seem like a pretty down to earth dude in this.
Why do you consider him the "upper echelon of humanity"?
Yes 🙌🏼
@@AlphaChinoz he's kind, humble, and still has an innocent feel to his aura though he was treated horribly
@@AlphaChinoz hes goated with that sauce fr fym
"The very place itself is an important character in the movie." I love that, such an insightful thing to say. The Mummy was hands down one of the best films of the 90s.
I remember seeing George of the jungle in theaters 😢 rip mom
Brendan is one of those actors/celebs that really feels like a person, you know? He doesn't put on a face, he's just himself, and that's beautiful. No wonder everyone loves him so much, because he's unfathomably authentic in every way.
Authentic and transparent. Even casually talks about beating it at 2:55 "Always busy off doing something else" *does jerking motion
He is the most person I've ever seen.
Like Keanu Reeves ❤ both beautiful inside and out
Only with Brendan do you get a synopsis of the contributions of everyone when you're interviewing him, about him. I love his appreciation of the team and the collective effort that makes a film. He's a good guy, and absolutely deserves the fame. The absolute passion he has for everything he does and positivity he has. It’s just a joy just to watch an interview like this.
He's still in the Mummy Ride at universal studios Orlando which is awesome
Agreed
The fact that this video has 3.3 millions views in just two days just proves this man still have tons of fans that never forgot him. It's pretty easy to tell that when you're in situations like this, you did a great job

Even shoutout to the CGI guys and what they had problems with etc, and his favourite camel guy haha. This guy is a treasure.
or that he has prepared for the interview.
@@Kaspisify absolutely!!!!
Man, it is SO good to see Brendan so relaxed and animated. Considering all the crap he has been through, it;s nice to see his personality showing through again.
I am so with you. Brendan was one of my favorite actors
Came here to say this! Haven't seen him this relaxed and confident while talking in a while. He's definitely opening up and getting comfortable again, lovely to see.
Wait, did he fully recover? I only heard the news about his divorce and its aftermath
@@ibosu3190 I don't think we can say if he's "fully" recovered, but he's doing much better know and he's starting in a new movie
Yeah he seems like a very chill, very genuine guy.
The first Mummy film will always be a genuine classic. The amount of injuries and broken bones he suffered during the trilogy doing his own stunts is horrific. I'm so glad he's back and happy after the utterly gross way he was treated by Hollywood.
IF he suffered such "horrific" injuries, why is he so gung ho to do another one? And who were those guys on set wearing identical costumes? STUNTMEN! He has a long list of them and they know he's full of ****!
Bedazzled is so underrated, the acting he gives in that movie is superb too
No joke! It's one of my personal favorites. It's a fantastic parody/recreation of Faust.
That movie is hilarious weirdly tho I always forget that I like it
I got distracted by the Devil that is Liz Hurley. 😂
This man is responsible for a large chunk of my childhood experiences with movies. We love you, Brendan. 🖤
George of the jungle was my favorite movie as a kid and I was so little I didn’t even realize what a babe he is. Now I put it on just to admire his beauty. ❤
I can't overstate how much I missed Brendan Fraser. He's always been like this, and it's why he can play those "Babe in the woods" characters so effectively. He emits kindness as his natural rest state. And someone get a script and Rachel Weisz on the phone, let's do the Rick and Evie show one more time!
We NEED a final Mummy movie with Brendan and Rachel and Arnold to complete the trilogy! (because no one counts Tomb of whatever emperor)
@@bec2549 I liked tomb of the dragon emperor
@@injetavel279 I think my problem was it was missing the characters and settings that made the first two so memorable/enjoyable 😞
Theres More Stuf They Could Do With Airheads

Brendan is the kind of actor we should put on a pedestal, he's genuinely sincere, proven throughout the years that he's such a empathetic person.
I actually got goosebumps when he talked about meeting everybody again for the Mummy returns, and talked so vividly about the guys he worked with the previous movie!
When ppl talk about art being special and universal.. Brendan personifies that
Yeah he’s definitely underrated and was soo handsome back then

I have watched the movie so many times can't get enough of it! It's in my top 10 favorite movies for sure!
And it does it all perfectly
You forgot action bro
I like how in almost every segment he talks more about the people around him than himself. Truly selfless and humble
Yes! What an amazing interview
Not only other people, but places, CGI, everything. And when he does mention himself, he does it in self-deprecating manner which he shouldnt do cause he is an awesome dude in every way :)
@@pukelius4128 Right? I really appreciate him but it's a bit sad. It's ok to recognise our own value, that doesn't make us arrogant /:
In HIS interview, he spent it talking up the other artists he worked with. I fell in love with him when I was a kid and I am in awe of him now. What a man.
I completely agree. He's so special.
I teared up watching this. He's so precious. He's so passionate and caring, and I'm so glad we have him back
I too have grown up watching Brendan Fraser, I only just now really appreciate what an amazing actor he has always been. He has the kindest, softest eyes that shine out his lovely humble nature. I want to go back and watch the movies again........
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. He speaks highly about everyone involved, his interpretation of the characters and scenes, and he is such a humble human being.
And he still remembers the names of all the costume & makeup people. ♡
@@tarajh exactly! Absolute respect 🙌🏼
whooooooooo cares
@@kk-qu1zc Clearly plenty of people lol. There's another comment saying pretty much the same thing with 36k likes
he's doing a public interview, Einstein. It's a theater since the peasants love "a humble human being."
It warmed my heart so much when he, without any hesitation, said, “Absolutely,” when asked if he would ever want to return to The Mummy franchise. I was once just a little kid watching those films religiously on a little DVD player… they meant a lot to me. It would be incredible to see him reprise the role of O’Connell once more.
It’s convinced me that I need to watch them (first 2) again today 😂
I watch them routinely but I think it’s time again
I agree! I was shocked when he mentioned there was a 3rd Mummy movie. But I agree with Brendan, without Rachel it's just not the same. The first two were such classics and they still hold up today because of the characters/actors, writing and comedy timing involved was **chefs kiss**
I watched the movies religiously too!
3rd one wasn't as good with out Rachel, but 1 and 2 will always be amazing in my heart.
Saaaame
Despite the many hardships he’s had to go through, he’s still smiling and giving us his unabashedly honest opinions. Humble, funny, kind. I’m living for his comeback ❤️❤️❤️
Not despite but because of. We are ripened by suffering.
couldn't have said it better myself
@@sonnyvarioni1654 You either get up or you stay down. A LOT of people are forced to stay down because of the hardships they face. Don't glorify the hardships. Glorify the people. Brendan is amazing because of what he overcame, not because of the people who did it to him.

I had the honor of meeting Brendan once at a cosplay contest. He is as kind as he appears here. Very sweet. Even asked for MY photo!

The fact that he describes the mummy as an action horror drama comedy really makes me happy. The mummy is one of my favorite films because I think it hits all those beats at different times. I think it can only be described as an adventure movie.

Any mention of Airheads always gets an upvote!
"We can rock out after breakfast!"

Thank you, Brendan. It’s wonderful to have you back.
Hope he knows? Dude.. even the dead know by now. Overhyped internet simpletons literally can't shut up about it
I’d like to think that he knows. He was given a standing ovation for his performance and he just broke down and cried while saying thank you.

@@mytv89626 and neither is yours.
To this day, Rick O'Connell remains the most lovable badass in an adventure film I have seen. The first 2 Mummy Films were perfection to me as a kid. And that still hasn't changed.
And it just makes me happy that Brendan is happy with his life again. Forever may it continue.
Same! As much as I like Brendan… the third one was where the mummy franchise lost my attention. Not because of Brendan, but because of where it went… where the new director took it.
Ikr.. The third really was, uh.. Yeah.. You know.. Eeessh..
well the first mummy sure was
Nothing beats the first two movies!!! I will never get tired of them!
Yeah love the mummy
The way he handles this interview is unlike any other. Rather than his ego flaunting stories about when he worked on these films… It’s him talking about how amazing his costars, directors and locations were. The personal stories are more about what he learned. It’s honestly refreshing and encouraging. This man is too great.❤
I was just thinking the same thing. He is so humble, hardly talks about himself, and is so enthusiastic about about the characters, stories, and people involved in the films.
He is truly humble, and I think he is still a bit shocked he ever got a role... it seems he still feels a bit undeserving, which is so wrong. He did deserve all and more. So glad he is back on the scene.
A lot of actors do this. Chris Hemsworth does it ALL the time. Doesn’t make them inauthentic but it’s a common move. Makes you more likable to heap praise on others.
Personal favourite is when he was defending and buttering up his CGI crew on the Mummy despite the CGI wasn't being good. Other celebs would have used that to make fun of the CGI team and chastises them for not doing a good job. He instead sympathise with them and argued that the cartoonish CGI is part of the charm of the film which what makes it so special to begin with. I just love when celebrities acknowledge the effort that goes behind the CGI.
Lies again? Institute College Obese Fat
I’m so glad Brendan is now getting the love he deserves. The Mummy films and George of the Jungle were massive parts of my childhood, and looking back, it was all Brendan. He made those movies really fun with his screen presence and comedy.
The Whale just proves the man is a wonderful actor, and despite everything he’s gone through, he remains uncommonly kind and funny. I’m front row for the Brenaissance.
Great comment. I'm right there with you, front row for the Brenaissance
Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!!! I rarely go a month without wanting to watch The Mummy. He has a natural chemistry with almost every single actor/actress he worked with. It's not a common gift in an actor.
What has he gone through?
Can’t forget that Looney toones movie
Don’t worry he’s a white male so he’ll get cancelled soon.
I’m so happy to see him making a comeback.
He’s always been a great actor, and he’s always been generous with the praise of his costars, and it’s nice to see that hasn’t changed.
Once a jerk, always a jerk.
For being in Hollywood for so long, he seems abnormally normal, humble, and kind. Glad he's finally getting his flowers.
I agree. People knocked him for getting older. Like, seriously? The guy has nothing to prove and I love how kind and humble he seems. Everyone will grow old one day if they're lucky. Do so gracefully and enjoy life.
He could have just avoided commenting on the awful Scorpion King cgi, but he went out of his way to mention the cgi people were rushed to do it last minute, and he gave a convincing argument for keeping it if the film is ever remastered.
Good dude.
That's because Hollywood hated and blacklisted him for being a good person
@@LordVader1094 probably for the best. Seriously.
He's Canadian, that's why. I say that with all due respect to the incredibly high moral standards of their country, wish the USA had more of his humility.
I love how he mentions himself not being funny. Yet, his corky upbeat humor had me smiling the entire video. This guy has no earthly idea the impact he has made on so many people. I wish I could get a chance to have a simple conversation. And instead of him praising others and thanking others for opportunities and experiences, and rather let him know how incredibly thankful people are for what he’s done and continues to do. Thank you!! You’ve truly helped shape the lives of so many people.
Quirky.
The word is quirky.
I definitely laughed at the college joke lol
Did you ever got the chance of watching a DVD ou Bluray copy of the Mummy? The best part is his audio commentary track. Think about a 2hrs version of this video, but focus on the Mummy. Its AWESOME.
Ppl have done that, poor guy cries everytime it's cute but kinda sad that he isn't used to it
@CarolinaSP20 Thank you! This sounds legitimately awesome and I will check it out for sure now!
The fact he can still intricately remember so many details and feelings about the films he's been in, and just how much he gives credit to others over himself, really shows how great of an actor and person Brendan is. I will never get tired of seeing this man win whenever he can.
He is an actor by trade.

@Brendan Fraser hello Brendan , I’m not sure if it’s really you .. to answer your question I’m your fan since 2001😀😀
Brendan goes so much further in depth about the process of film making and his appreciation of his coworkers than most of the celebrities I've seen do these interviews. His appreciation for his job and the people surrounding him really shines through...

The absolute humanity of Brendan Fraser is deeply moving. He lauds the creations of others, he shows true interest in his performances, the complete heartfelt nature of his honesty, it warms the heart truly.
It feels so real
Yet just by the start of this video you are proven wrong. How can one act in a movie have a main role yet still fail to realize what the movie is about and what genre is it suppose to be ... It's a fantasy-adventure-comedy, how hard is it to realize that ... If he is so interested and invested into something how TF does he not know wtf is the movie he PLAY A MAIN ROLE IN ?!!!!
So yeah, think again what he actually is.

My father was part of the crew working on the third mummy movie and he always praised Brendan Fraser and how down-to-earth he was. He's really happy to see him again on screen❤
😊
I really hope Brendan Fraser reads the comments on this video. He mentioned that he wasn’t aware so many people were super excited to see him return and how much love and support his fans have for him. He’s such a humble, talented man. He really embodies what an actor should be.
i think he's just human enough to do that
A true model for humility and grace, a man with true passion for the arts like story telling.
I really respect how he highlights all the people who worked on the films, even if the films are a little silly. He just shows a great reverence for everyone involved and that's really cool to see. His joy and enthusiasm are both so infectious to watch
I love him so much 😭

G’day, mayor
Kurtis what are you doing here??
whats up checkmark
As a kid growing up, The Mummy was such an amazing movie; I don't think anyone else could have played Rick other then Brendan Fraser.
Well said @John Doe
With every movie Brendan Frasier thanks his castmates and praises how much they elevated the script, the performances and his acting...what a humble and kind man truly.
he praises his castmates and production, but IMO, it's really what Brendan Fraiser brings to the film that reflects on other actors and gives them more to act with.
Time & time again in so many interviews you’ll hear Brendan praise the talents of his co-workers & fellow actors, often crediting many with his own opportunity to be able to perform well in any given movie. It’s so refreshingly earnest & it comes across as Brendan’s genuine desire to always acknowledge those around him & how he’s grateful for everyone. Much respect 🙌
It's called kissing up. He thinks they'll put him in another movie. They won't.
Brendan Fraser was such a massive part of my childhood. The first mummy movie is almost imprinted in my brain. I grew up on that movie. Thank you for everything you have ever done Brendan, for real. You are a huge part of a lot of peoples memories and lives!:)
Brendan's demeanor reminds me of a quote, "Humility isn't thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.". Brendan perfectly embodies this quote the way he sings praises of his coworkers without hesitation. I love this guy so much
Wow I love that
The quote is by C.S. Lewis 😊
When they asked him if he would return to The Mummy franchise and he gave a resounding yes and then asked " Do you have a script" my heart jumped for joy! I felt like a kid again going to see one of the greatest summer block busters!! Someone please get this man a script for The Mummy 4!!!
let's hope that if they plan the script for a 4th one that this time they do one good enough to get Rachel Weisz back as Eve
Yes please! I honestly think he's going to get nominated for an oscar/Emmy for The Whale....movie looks good already and he only said 5 things in the trailer
I fear the movie industry will ruin the film if had Mummy 4 actually created.
@@gonyaknudles9009 they already remade the mummy with tom cruise and it was a snoozefest. Easily one of the worst
@@friya196 Yeah but that was whole different franchise. I think Hollywood is becoming more infamous of ruining the series nowadays
His voice is somehow so rich with emotions, so vulnerable als if he has his heart in his mouth while he's speaking.
I sometimes got a little teary-eyed when he talked so full of excitment, so positiviely about others and all the things he loves and respects. So honest and pure.
I can only assume all this though :P since I don't know him but to me it really feels this way while listening and watching this video.
Well put. 👌
He was such a outwardly beautiful youth, but I think we’ve discovered that Brendan Fraser is just an all around beautiful man, inside and out. So kind and generous to everyone he’s worked with.

I swear Brendan is right up there with Keanu Reeves when it comes to actors you can’t help but love. Even if you tried to dislike him, or hate his movies, you just can’t not like the guy.
yea but brendan is actually a good actor. Keanu is a cool guy indeed but not that great of an actor
@@heffe1557 That's subjective at best and doesn't need to be addressed when talking about the value of a person.
@heffe1557 yeah and that's why he's one of he most successful actors in the world isn't it.....
ok now i want to see them both in a movie together
@@shaskakitea1785 but.. he's not wrong...
He seems like such a genuinely nice guy. The way he praised the people around him and describes how he's just happy to be part of it all, is really inspiring.
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.
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.
It is up there with Dracula Untold.
I put The Mummy on par with Raiders of the Lost Arc, my favourite movies of all time
Brendan Fraser made The Mummy films really stand out. Nobody could have done his role better. A perfect choice to be honest. I hope his comeback really allows him to shine again
and the Oscar goes to... (I was so happy yesterday!)
@@stephanewantiez164 yes he did it
even in the 3rd movie which wasn't so well received he was still great.
The Mummy was one of my absolute favorites as a kid
Heck yeah he rocks in those films we need a Mummy 4 hope it can happen
He's a national treasure. He spoke so much about the people he worked with and you can tell he appreciates every moment he had with the cast and crew on every film.
actually nicholas cage was the guy in national treasure s/
@@spikepsych perhaps just a mix up, SudoYETI was just saying Brendan is a National Treasure. If you were being sarcastic, just ignore my comment 😜
I’ve had a huge smile for the whole time watching this interview.
What an amazingly warm guy ❤
What a beautiful person. Sensitive, empathetic, gracious, generous, grateful… He spent the whole interview saying the most wonderful things about the people he’s worked with. I teared up at certain points because you just can’t help but feel your heart grow as you listen to his stories. The world needs more people like him.
😊
ok
Shame he was destroyed by a horrible harpy of an ex wife
@@etpc2023 women moment, isn't it?
So refreshing to see someone who isn't consumed by ego and narcissism speak about his journey through life. You can see how empathetic he is, kind, reflective, personal and has such strong resilience and depth of character.
This
I love this man’s personality more than maybe any other actor I’ve ever watched. The heartbreak, the redemption, the love and passion he puts into everything he does, ever the obviously goofy stuff like frickin George of the jungle and Dudley Do-right. NEVER change Brendan, you are perfect the way you are.
Dude is just simply such a good dude
Brendan has such a special place in my heart because of george of the jungle and the mummy movies. Seeing who he is as a person and not just an actor is beautiful. He is such a pure person and I strive for that.
@Brendan Fraser Since I saw the 1st mummy movie years ago!
It seems like Brendan's life has been quite difficult at times, and yet he still spoke about his past experiences with so much gratitude and humility. We are fortunate to have him. I hope he sees some of these kind comments on this video and knows how much we appreciate him and are rooting for him!
Brendan calling himself the least funny person and then proceeding to make me smile and giggle for most of the interview just like he did in his movies when I was a kid. Love him. 🥺❤️
And his John Cleese impression is spot on in 17:10 and 17:22
If John Cleese saw this part i'm sure he'll laugh
Such a good kind guy, always wears husband heart on his sleeve
This man gives credit to the actors in animal suits, he remembers all the important details, there's no ego to this guy, it's all just love for what we does. No matter what you're doing and in what industry, Brendan Fraser's a role model for how to be as a person.
He even remembered the elephant's name...
@Brendan Fraser vs The Truth You really sound like someone who would go out of their way to cause bodily harm to him because of this weird one-sided feud you have going on.
@@TheoRae8289 I just saw this guy in another yt comment he literally hate Brendan
@@homelander746 I cannot imagine putting that much energy into hating someone. Feel like him and my mother would have gotten along in their ability to obsess so intensely.
@Brendan Fraser vs The Truth Didn't he ruin his body doing his own stunts for the Mummy movies? IIRC he had major back problems that required surgery.
bedazzled is one of my favorites movies I loved rewatching it when I was a kid and all this time I thought this actor was dead smh🤦🏽 Brendan is an incredible actor so underrated he makes it feel authentic and real his performance in the whale is just incredible I hope I could see more of him in the future more life to him ❤
How did we lose this gem of a man for so many years? His commitment to the character is impeccable. The way he remembers such specific details of the character’s personalities, regardless of how developed they were or not, says so much about the care he took to prepare for each role. I’m so glad he’s back, and that he’s stronger by the minute. Much love, Brendan.
He said….he was sexually harassed by ‘someone high up’ and was flat out told he had to submit or be blacklisted. He resisted.
@@ladyethyme do you have a link to the interview where he talked about this?
@@tnt01 The entire hollywood system works this way; it is an 'open secret.'
@@pyropulseIXXI i am aware. but am looking for the specific interview.
@@tnt01 check the gq article
I like the Brendan acknowledges all the pitfalls and challenges of his movies (i.e. the bad CGI, Rachel not coming back, etc.) in such a positive way. Dude is an absolute legend and a delight. I bet Brendan would be a great dinner guest.
His decision to speak to and boast about supporting characters through this whole piece really speaks to his character. This segment is about *him* and *his career* and he chooses to expound upon how impactful the people around him (especially those normally not featured - like the suit actors in George of the Jungle) is so impressive to see. What a beautiful and humble professional.
I love listening to him talk.. I could listen to him for hours.. he sound's so sincere and humble.. I Love you Brendan Fraser.. I saw "The Mummy" when I was a kid and it's been my favorite movie ever since.
I watched George of the Jungle and it made me want to become a stuntman after.
He shows so much respect towards his co-stars, to the CGI crew, his fans and the directors. It truly shows what kind of person he is. I hope he gets more roles and better ones. He deserves it.
This is my favorite "Iconic Characters" breakdown ever. Fraser seems like such a genuinely nice person who appreciates his career to the fullest. Very wholesome interview.
It’s you’re favorite so far…
No with honors? Pfft
You can just tell this guy is incredibly genuine and kind. The amount of praise he gives his coworkers shows you how much he loves what he does.
And incredibly well read. Like everything he said was just beautifully orated
What a sweet brilliant person Branden is. Hope he grants his talent and grace to us for many years to come.
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.
He's looking and sounding much better than few years ago when he came out of hiding. Nice to see, Brendan was a big part of our childhood and teenage years with his awesome flicks, legend.
Lots of his movies accompanied me throughout my childhood and teenage years even my young adulthood and have always been very entertaining, he seems to know that a movie, above all, entertains and leaves a very nice taste in your mouth when you finish it
why even go there man? Couldnt just say something nice like "hes looking pretty good". had to go with the backhanded compliment? smh, I guess your comment could have been worse.
ok
One of my favorite actors growing up :) saw George of the Jungle and the Mummy in Tneaters. Two fantastic movies that introduced me to great talent. So happy to see him back in business. He was always a bright light.
I wish I got to see George of the Jungle in theaters. It’s such an intense movie with all of the daring vine swings he does.
