Brendan Fraser is best known for his physical performances in popular comedies like The Mummy and George of The Jungle, but in a recent interview, The Whale star broke down the effect his early car…
“I got a little banged up from years of doing my own stunts and needed a surgical fix on the spine and the hinges,” he told The Telegraph.

I knew I would get better, but it took a long time,” he said.movie in China, every morning, he would wake up and put himself “together like a gladiator with muscle tape and ice packs, strapping on this Transformer-like exoskeleton just to get through the scene.
When asked whether he endured such physical pain due to a certain degree of “self-loathing,” he responded: “Absolutely, there was self-loathing. I think on some level I felt I deserved [a beating] and wanted to be the one who got in the first punch.”, Fraser was best known for his muscular shape, and he told the newspaper that “it made sense” for him to look that way “if all they were giving me to put on was a butt flap.
