Brendan Fraser had to cope with many strokes of fate: the divorce from his wife, medical problems, the loss of his mother, and coming to terms with his sexual assault.
But it seems things have been looking up for him. The actor received a minute-long standing ovation at the 2022 Venice International Film Festival for his big comeback role in The Whale. His ex-wife Afton Smith accompanied him to Venice - it seems that the two still get along very well.
