Brendan Fraser and Dwayne Johnson Might Reunite in New Movie ‘Jumanji’

It has been more than 20 years since Dwayne Johnson made his film debut with ‘The Mummy 2’, the franchise that made Brendan Fraser famous. Since then, both actors have never met again in any production. But that is about to change, as another fantasy and action saga will bring them together once again on the big screen, like ‘Jumanji’.

According to a source of Koimoi media, Brendan Fraser Will Reunite With Dwayne Johnson In ‘Jumanji”, this after both actors saw their faces at the Oscars 2023, where the ‘The Mummy’ actor was awarded for his participation in ‘The Whale’ as best actor. In the past, Johnson has thanked Fraser for giving him the opportunity to make his film debut, and now he’d like to return the favor.

Behind the scenes of the 95th edition of the Oscar winners Dwayne Johnson and Brendan Fraser have met again, and such a moment was immortalized by the protagonist of ‘Black Adam’, who uploaded the meeting on his social networks. Fraser introduced Johnson to her two sons, and the meeting fueled rumors that the ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth’ star would be joining ‘Jumanji 4.’

According to rumors, Brendan Fraser to play Spencer Gilpin’s father in ‘Jumanji 4”, although nothing has been confirmed by Columbia Pictures. It wouldn’t be strange, then, to revisit the Oscar-winner in an action-adventure franchise that puts him back on the Hollywood blockbuster radar, capitalizing on the surge in fame he’s achieved in theaters lately.

Dwayne Johnson thanked Brendan Fraser for his career

In the Instagram post, Dwayne Johnson took the opportunity to thank Brendan Fraser for the opportunity to make his acting debut: “My first movie in Hollywood was ‘The Mummy Returns’ where Brendan was the star. At the time, many critics and cynics were betting against me, but Brendan welcomed me with open arms and was a huge help.”

At the time of the premiere of ‘The Whale’ at the Venice Film Festival, Brendan Fraser received a standing ovation for more than 7 minutes, thanks to his performance in ‘The Whale’. The moment was so emotional that it caused some words from Dwayne Johnson: “It makes me so happy to see this beautiful ovation for Brendan. I’m rooting for all your success bro, and congratulations to my friend Darren Aronofsky.”

Now we just have to wait to find out what are the producer’s negotiation plans to unite Brendan Fraser in ‘Jumanji’. Or whether, on the contrary, only rumors will remain, but it would be very interesting to know what Fraser’s next step will be after the release of Martin Scorsese’s ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’.
