There was a time when Brendan Fraser was living comfortably on the A-list as the star of hits like Disney’s George of the Jungle in 1997, the action-packed Mummy movies, and a 3D adaptation of Journey to the Center of the Earth from 2008 — and that is just to name a few of his blockbusters. Given how he just made one of the greatest celebrity comebacks of the decade by winning an Academy Award for The Whale, it looks like the actor is about to reclaim that reputation. What better option would there be for the next stage of his “Brennaissance” than starring in some upcoming Marvel movies?
Of course, if he were to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it would certainly not be his first foray into comic book adaptations, having starred on HBO Max’s Doom Patrol for four seasons. However, it would be the first time we would see him in any superhero movies, since nothing came from his Superman audition in the early 2000s and his role in the Batgirl movie will probably never see the light of day. For that reason, I believe that his hypothetical MCU induction deserves to be a special one, so I came up with a few Marvel characters ripped straight from the comic book pages that would be perfectly suited for an actor of his talent and his specific experiences — starting with a couple of hot characters.
