53-year-old Hollywood actress, Rachel Weisz, revealed to Extra in a discussion that she texted Fraser after winning his Best Actor Oscar last month. Weisz told the outlet, “I texted after his win. I texted him after I saw the performance. It was a staggeringly good film.”

The Constant Gardener actress also shared with the outlet that she was excited and happy for her 1999 co-star, Fraser. In her words, “I’m so happy for Brendan. Very happy.”

Speaking to Net-a-Porter , Weisz mentioned she’s “thrilled” for Fraser as he makes his big Hollywood comeback. She said, “I’m really, really thrilled for him … that he’s had this new chapter. And it couldn’t have happened to a nicer, nicer guy.”

Relationship With The Director

Weisz might be closer to The Whale movie than her just having shared the big screen with its main protagonist. Her ex-husband of nine years, Darren Aronofsky, helmed the directorial role for the sensational award-winning film.

An Award-Winning Movie

Brendan Fraser and A24 studios are having a blast since The Whale hit the theaters last December. The movie has won two Oscars, a SAG, and a Critics’ Choice Award for its performance.

The Multiverse Speech

At the Oscars stage to receive his award for Best Actor , Fraser joked about finally being in the multiverse in his opening speech: “Thank you, thank you. So this is what the multiverse looks like.”

Praising Darren

The 54-year-old actor thanked his director, Darren Aronofsky, and praised studio A24 for making the “bold film.”

“Oh, my goodness. I thank the Academy for this honor and for our studio, A24, for making such a bold film. And – I’m grateful to Darren for throwing me a creative lifeline and hauling me aboard the good ship The Whale .”

Nothing Came Easy

Along his speech, Fraser reflects on his time in Hollywood, acknowledging that it hasn’t been easy. He said, “I started in this business 30 years ago, and things – they didn’t come easily to me, but there was a facility that I didn’t…I didn’t appreciate at the time until it stopped.”

Comments On His Sons

The atmosphere at the Oscars felt Fraser’s moment on stage as he spoke passionately during his acceptance. He added, “It’s been like I’ve been in a diving expedition at the bottom of the ocean and the air on the line to the surface is on a launch being watched over by some people in my life, like my sons, Holden and Leland and Griffin. I love you.”

The Golden Globes Refusal

Although Brendan Fraser might have left a lasting impression on the Oscars stage, he was previously in the news headlines for boycotting the Golden Globes.

Allegations Against HFPA

Some years ago, Fraser claimed that the then-president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), Philip Berk, groped him in 2003. Sadly, he states the events made his career “withered on a vine” because the HFPA was behind the Golden Globes.

Disputing The Claims

Philip Berk, who has also been a subject of criticism, disputed Fraser’s allegations of the 2003 groping. Berk was ejected from HFPA after referring to the Black Lives Matter movement as a “racist hate group.”

Fraser’s Statement On Not Attending

Before winning the Oscars, Fraser told GQ he would not participate in the Golden Globes in January. In his words, “I have more history with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association than I have respect for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.”

Closing Ranks

Still, in the discussion, Fraser stated that he knew HFPA will “close ranks” after his allegations. “I knew they would close ranks. I knew they would kick the can down the road.”

The George Of The Jungle actor added, “I knew they would get ahead of the story. I knew that I certainly had no future with that system as it was.”

Weisz and Fraser’s On-Screen Moments

Rachel Weisz and Brendan Fraser are no strangers to Hollywood; their roles together prove it. The pair had shared moments on the big screen for 1999’s The Mummy and 2001’s The Mummy Returns .

Her Replacement

While there was a second sequel to the 1999’s first movie, Weisz didn’t reprise the role for 2008’s The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor . Replacing her for the part was Maria Bello.

Complimented Her Old Cast

In discussion with media outlets, Weisz called the cast of The Mummy brilliant while recounting her experience. “Everybody in The Mummy was just brilliant, and it was just some alchemical thing in it, that it had charm, and charm is such a strange thing. It’s either there or it isn’t.”

Fraser Is Still Open To The Mummy

When asked if he could reprise his role in The Mummy franchise, Fraser told Variety that he is more than happy to return as long as it’s right. “I don’t know how it would work. But I’d be open to it if someone came up with the right conceit.”

“No Fun” In Tom Cruise’s 2017 Mummy

Not necessarily taking a jab at Tom Cruise’s 2017 reincarnation of his 1999 movie, Fraser stated he didn’t see “fun” in the movie, which might have caused its low turnout.

“It is hard to make that movie. The ingredient that we had going for our Mummy , which I didn’t see in the new one, was fun. That was what was lacking in that incarnation. It was too much of a straight-ahead horror movie. The Mummy should be a thrill ride, but not terrifying and scary.”
