Brendan Fraser
Brendan Fraser’s life has in the past a turbulent one. The actor suffered a variety of accidents that caused stunts and underwent numerous procedures. He was in and out of hospital for 7 years. He also had an incident with a Hollywood executive , which put his career on the shelf. The role he played in 1999’s breakout film The Mummy helped him to gain recognition. Since then, he has been in several films including School Ties (1992), Blast from The Past(1998), Bedazzled 2000 (2008) as well as Inkheart (2008).
In the 1990s, he began the first phase of his career as an actor. He became famous with films such as Dogfight as well as The Mummy. After the success of those films it was apparent that he had slipped away from the limelight. But the impact of social media has made him come back on the stage and is one of the most popular actors in Hollywood.
Darren Aronofsky
The film “Black Swan” is set in Fraser’s house for five days. In the film, Fraser is the quiet Charlie who is trying to reconnect with his estranged daughters, Sadie Sink. In this movie both actors portray divergent character.
The film “Fat People Eat Big,” Darren Aronofsky’s latest film, Brendan Fraser plays a gay man in a wheelchair. The performance of Brendan Fraser is so emotional that Fraser could have been overcome by emotion throughout the 6-minute standing applause. Famous actors like Phoebe Waller Bridge and Dwayne Johnson thanked him on Twitter for the film’s success.
Dudley Do-Right

The film was made through Davis Entertainment for Universal Studios. It stars some of the same actors as the cartoon, including Alfred Molina and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Dudley Do-Right, which failed to earn a profit in 1999 was the most successful movie at the box office and resulted in the loss of Hugh Wilson his career. Brendan Fraser’s career was saved from the ashes of The Mummy. He was barely 17 years old at that time. The movie features a group of New York Italian-Americans whose names resemble those of Iron Eyes Cody.

He’s composed on a variety of film projects, including Medieval Fantasy Westender (2003) and the Keira Knightley End-of the World dramatic comedy Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (2012).
