    He and Keanu Reeves strike me as two of the most sincere and genuine "stars" in the past thirty years. Humility and gratitude are not weaknesses, they're signs of a strong character. Wishing Brendan a triumphant and successful return.

    He truly deserves all the praise and love. I don't care what he looks like or what his weight is, I'm just glad he's recovered from his surgeries and is happy. I think that's all anyone wants for Brendan at this point, is for him to be happy and loved.

They could have said something but instead they decided they were going to back up the CREEP who MOLESTED Brendan!!! Well now, KARMA will finally be bestowed upon him and the rest of those CREEPS Involved in this! I hope Brandon will now have the best choice of movies to do now, and I could care less whether he got back into shape or not! He could stand to lose a some weight, just to be healthier, but otherwise it doesn't affect how I see him at all. He's still Gorgeous distinguished older gentleman. Reminds me of the character in Blast from the past! Hopefully like the ending, he finds the love of his life, and they marry, and he has amazing luck and instead of the baseball cards making him rich, Brendan will now star in movies that people love again, and he will (hopefully) win all kinds of awards for his amazing acting chops, and that would be the BIGGEST F-YOU to those who took his career away from him for years.

When Brendan Frasier told the story about how hard he tried with his physical roles and the toll they took on his body, and how he was victimized by a predator, and all of the things he has dealt with, my heart went out to him and I really was rooting for his success and recovery. I'm glad Brendan Fraser received such a warm reception at this premier. I hope the universe keeps sending him goodness. Brendan Fraser is the sort of person that brings people together. What an awesome soul.

      Can we add Rick Moranis in there? Dude gave up acting to be a father to his children when his wife was diagnosed with (and saddly succumbed to) cancer. He said being a father was more important than playing make pretend. Also one of tge original SCTV guys.
      John Candy was a HUGE class act as well. He'd visit children's hospitals between shoots and his costars would have to quietly remind him that they had to go, often several times, before he would tear himself away from terminally ill children. Very sweet man, gone far before his time.

    People have forgotten how diverse and amazing Brendan was in the acting industry. He was my favourite actor in my teenage years and i really longed for him to return to acting. So wonderful to see him back in action. Amazing human.

    He was blacklisted. And for no good reason. That standing ovation is all over TikTok. First time I saw it, I SOBBED! This guy was put through something he didn't deserve! Graeme...now you got me sobbing again!!

    ive always liked brendan fraser, never knew why he started losing his exposure but dammit i am glad to see him back. Hes just a great presence on screen, no matter the role. I hope hes happy and it makes me SO happy that hes still in love with his craft, to the point that this experience moved him to tears. Its heartwarming to see it, ya know?

      I think because he's revealed what most of the bosses had been doing to their artists. So he got blacklisted whoch really sucks.

    So happy for him. He seems to be one of the very few super humble, good guys, in that industry.

    I have never not loved this man. How CAN you not love him?? He deserves ALL the love and accolades he's getting and has deserved them for far longer than he's been getting them

    After reading the article on Fraser where he explained his journey with his family, I completely believed in him. The Mummy's first two movies showed his great comedic timing and physical acting. Sadly his health, especially injuries caused by previous projects, was not at it's best. But his change in appearance has allowed people to see the depth and range of his talent. So happy that he is in more projects!

      totally agree. he was more goofy, and charming back then, as how people want to view him as. now hes an actual actor, the depth in his acting will show and i hope us, gen y and z will accept him for who he is now without thinking how he was then.

    It led to not only a nomination, but to him becoming an Academy Award winning actor.

    I feel he’s still recovering and perhaps a wee bit fragile, I sincerely hope this gets him back on the map and that he can be in a stronger place. I’d personally like to see all those that colluded in his decline be outed and made to explain themselves.
