The actor’s return to the big screen has been welcomed by fans and celebrities alike.
Working in Martin Scorcese’s movie, Fraser is set to mark his concrete stay in the industry, especially after Batgirl got shelved, which was set to be his actual comeback into Hollywood. In the actor’s recent interview, he talked about his meeting with Leonardo DiCaprio and how it had quickly become one of his most emotionally memorable instances.

Brendan Fraser Talked About Meeting Up With Leonardo DiCaprio
In an interview with GQ, Brendan Fraser Talked about his reunion with Leonardo DiCaprio and how it marked a big moment for him. He remembered the moment when he first met the actor and how amazed he was by his talent.
“When he was, I think probably all of, I don’t know, 17, 16 maybe, he did Gilbert Grape. I saw it on the Paramount lot. I think I had just been in School Ties or something then, and I was, like, flummoxed, but I just wanted to tell him, Hear, hear. That was incredible.”
Furthermore, DiCaprio too admitted how Frazer was the only actor to ever treat him as an equal rather than a new actor in the process of slowly gaining success. Naturally, before his Titanic phase, he was barely known and was on the path of gaining well-deserved respect. The Wolf Of Wall Street actor went out of his way to recall this moment and tell Brendan Fraser about it just so he could be aware of the positive impact he has on people.
People Admire Brendan Fraser For More Than His Acting
Brendan Fraser’s reputation in Hollywood and among the fans is not only for his commendable acting skills, unlike most actors, but also for the way he treats others and his welcoming personality. He has been a respected celebrity and even with a fluctuating sense of fame, he remains on top with his talent and his courtesy towards others.
His reunion with Leonardo DiCaprio thanks to Martin Scorsese revolves around a movie that would see the FBI along with the Texas Rangers going deep into the forest to investigate murders within the Osage Tribe. Based on a nonfictional novel of the same title, the film would be seeing Brendan Fraser in a bigger role ever since The Whale and Doom Patrol.
Killers of the Flower Moon will premiere in the Cannes Festival in 2023.
