People are calling for Brendan Fraser to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

From Hollywood Hunk to the wholesome king, we should all believe in Brendan Fraser superiority

There are some celebrities that one would assume have had a Hollywood Walk of Fame star for some time, with Brendan Fraser being one of them. However, despite having one in Canada, Fraser’s name is still missing from Hollywood’s iconic stared pavement.

Not only did Fraser awaken a generation of gays in 1997’s George of the Jungle, but the American-born actor would go on to spearhead the Mummy Franchise for which he is best known.

From 1999 to 2008, Fraser portrayed The Mummy’s protagonist Richard O’Connell alongside other acting powerhouses like Rachel Weisz, Oded Fehr, The Rock, John Hannah, Jet Li, Liam Cunningham, and Michelle Yeoh.

Alongside other Blockbusters like Journey to the Centre of the Earth, Fraser also starred in countless TV shows. Most recently, he starred in DC’s Doom Patrol.

But until recently, Fraser has remained fairly reclusive, spurring numerous articles that question where the hell he disappeared to? But he has recently signed on to numerous high-profile flicks, including Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon.

This year’s new names announced for the Hollywood Walk of Fame include James Hong, Willem Dafoe, Carrie Fisher, Jason Momoa, Regina King, Ming-Na Wen, Francis Ford Coppola, and Michael B. Jordan.

The Walk of Fame list, released in June, has always been bewildering. For instance, given that Carrie Fisher is a legend with a career spanning decades, it is an awful shame that she only be honoured with a star after her passing.

And Donald Trump, Bill Cosby, and Kevin Spacey all have stars, so why doesn’t heartthrob turned wholesome dude Brendan Fraser get one?

Justice for Brendan Fraser!
