Brendan James Fraser (born December 3, 1968) is an American-Canadian actor. Fraser had his breakthrough in 1992 with the comedy Encino Man and the drama School Ties. He gained further prominence for his starring roles in the comedies With Honors (1994) and George of the Jungle (1997) and emerged as a star playing Rick O'Connell in The Mummy trilogy (1999–2008). He took on dramatic roles in Gods and Monsters (1998), The Quiet American (2002), and Crash (2004), and further fantasy roles in Bedazzled (2000) and Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008). Fraser's film work slowed from the late 2000s to mid-2010s due to the poor box office performances, and various health and personal problems, including the fallout from a sexual assault committed against him in 2003 by Philip Berk, the then-president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Fraser branched into television with roles in the Showtime drama The Affair (2016–2017), the FX series Trust (2018), and the Max series Doom Patrol (2019–2023). His film career was revitalized by roles in Steven Soderbergh's No Sudden Move (2021) and Darren Aronofsky's The Whale (2022). Fraser's starring role as an obese gay man in the latter earned him critical acclaim and numerous accolades, including the Academy Award for Best Actor, becoming the first Canadian to win this category.

Brendan James Fraser (* 3. Dezember 1968 in Indianapolis, Indiana) ist ein US-amerikanisch-kanadischer Filmschauspieler. Er studierte Schauspiel am Upper Canada College in Toronto und machte den Abschluss am Actor’s Conservatory Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle. Ab dem Jahr 1991 nahm er erste Filmrollen an, zu Beginn nur in Komödien wie Airheads (1994). Bekannt wurde er durch die Verkörperung der Titelfigur in der Tarzan-Parodie George – Der aus dem Dschungel kam sowie durch die Rolle des Richard „Rick“ O’Connell, neben Rachel Weisz und John Hannah, in dem Abenteuerfilm Die Mumie (1999). 1997 bewies er an der Seite von Ian McKellen in dem Film Gods and Monsters, einer Film-Biografie über den Horrorfilm-Regisseur James Whale, dass er auch in der Lage ist, ernste Rollen erfolgreich umzusetzen. 2002 spielte er neben Michael Caine in der Neuverfilmung des Graham Greene-Romans The Quiet American die zweite Hauptrolle und wandte sich in der Folge vorwiegend ernsteren Filmstoffen zu. In der Krankenhaus-Serie Scrubs – Die Anfänger trat er dreimal in der Nebenrolle des Ben Sullivan, dem besten Freund und (Ex-)Schwager von Dr. Cox, auf, wobei er als leukämiekranker Bruder von Jordan und Hobby-Fotograf, passend zu Frasers Liebe zur Fotografie, für Chaos sorgt. In der Verfilmung des Cornelia-Funke-Romans Tintenherz war er als Mo Folchart im Kino zu sehen. Die Autorin der Romanvorlage hatte im Vorfeld des Öfteren verlauten lassen, Fan von Fraser zu sein und sich ihn bei einer filmischen Umsetzung ihrer Tintenwelt-Bücher in der männlichen Hauptrolle zu wünschen. Sie widmete Fraser den zweiten Band der Reihe, Tintenblut. Den Höhepunkt seiner Karriere erreichte Fraser in den frühen 2000ern, seit einer Reihe von Flops ist es stiller um ihn geworden. Außerdem ist er häufiger in verschiedenen Fernsehproduktionen zu sehen. Quelle: Wikipedia

Brendan James Fraser (nato il 3 dicembre 1968) è un attore americano-canadese. Fraser ha avuto la sua svolta nel 1992 con la commedia Encino Man e il dramma School Ties. Ha guadagnato ulteriore importanza per i suoi ruoli da protagonista nelle commedie With Honors (1994) e George of the Jungle (1997) ed è emerso come star interpretando Rick O'Connell nella trilogia de La mummia (1999-2008). Ha interpretato ruoli drammatici in Gods and Monsters (1998), The Quiet American (2002) e Crash (2004), e ulteriori ruoli fantasy in Bedazzled (2000) e Viaggio al centro della Terra (2008). Il lavoro cinematografico di Fraser ha subito un rallentamento dalla fine degli anni 2000 alla metà degli anni 2010 a causa delle scarse prestazioni al botteghino e di vari problemi di salute e personali, tra cui le conseguenze di un'aggressione sessuale commessa contro di lui nel 2003 da Philip Berk, l'allora presidente della Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Fraser si è ramificato in televisione con ruoli nel dramma di Showtime The Affair (2016-2017), nella serie FX Trust (2018) e nella serie Max Doom Patrol (2019-2023). La sua carriera cinematografica è stata rivitalizzata dai ruoli in No Sudden Move (2021) di Steven Soderbergh e The Whale (2022) di Darren Aronofsky. Il ruolo da protagonista di Fraser come un uomo gay obeso in quest'ultimo gli è valso il plauso della critica e numerosi riconoscimenti, tra cui l'Oscar come miglior attore, diventando il primo canadese a vincere questa categoria.
