@Anon Smith pretty much yes. However it did eventually come out and the guy is being investigated . Same thing happened with Terry Crews. Not totally sure but I think Adam was on Terry's side to come out about it. Might have with Brendan too.
@Michael Schmitt SO BASICALLY GAY PERVERTS IN HOLLYWOOD ARE SO MAFIA THAT THEY CAN BLACKLIST THAT BIG OF A STAR & GET AWAY WITH IT. GOT IT. PLUS THAT WAS BEFORE SOCIAL MEDIA - CAN'T DO THAT NOW WITHOUT BACKLASH. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW I ESCAPED THE 90S NEVER KNOWING & HE FKN GOT AWAY WITH THAT BS! NOBODY SPOKE UP ON HIS BEHALF?! FKN HOLLYWOOD & THEIR SICK BS!! 🤬😡
@Anon SmithBrendan got blacklisted because a publicity head hit on him. Brendan reported it. And he was dismissed . Because believes this powerful man was a predator til years later.
@Rico Rios people pity Brendan frazer so much these lunatics have created an entire new reality where Brendan Frazier is one of the greatest actors alive.
It’s hard to understate how much of an affect these two had on me as a kid in the 90’s. They both gave me a place to escape in everyone of there movies from a very abusive home life. To see how cool they are in real life and how well they get along warms my heart
@Christina 🪬 thank you for this beautiful comment. I don’t think people understand how much human empathy can help people in this life 🙏 your comment touched my heart
Seeing Brendan Fraser come back into the spotlight, just puts a smile on my face. He seems like a legit good guy, and I'm so happy he's doing work again.
I grew up watching Brendan Fraser and one day, we just didn't see him in movies and shows anymore. I'm so glad to see him getting all the love he deserves.
@Midtoker Marius he never was black listed, he’s a bad actor, his films started to crash at the box office, the jobs he got were as mediocre as his acting skill. Dumb people is so easily manipulated believing a false narrative. It’s laughable to see you defend the indefensible
@Cody V. Sorry the age of the movie star is over.. For all of them, Gen z don't care about movie stars.. I grew watching the new (insert star here) movie.. The characters is the draw now not the actors
@JK blacklisting doesn't make it so you can't work. It's illegal for the studios to stop you from working.. What blacklisting does is making it so many directors won't work with you and making sure as few people as possible see the work you do put out.. That's why most people thought he was gone for many years even though he was working most of the time
@Midtoker Marius he wasn’t blacklisted at all, that’s a falsa narrative, he worked every single year even in relevant works just that he as mediocre as his acting skills wasn’t noticed, go check his IMDb page if you think that the mummy was his last film that shows just how ignorant you are, nobody hide him, he simply aligned himself to works equals to his low level of talent. Check your status of movie geek, it’s terrible hahaha.
A long time ago Sandler came into a BBQ restaurant in Boca Raton Florida sometime around Thanksgiving. Absolutely a stand up guy, not the least bit of a snob, excellent tipper and super kind to all the old people who wouldn't let him and his family eat in peace. Much respect for Adam Sandler.
Two absolute legends of my youth. I couldn't be happier that I get to continue watching movies still being made with them. Especially in the case of Brendan Fraser. I was heart broken with what he went through, but I'm glad he's back and hopefully has many more amazing movies to come!
Both of these fine men are such humble human beings. I love how Sandler is building him up and being so supportive. You can see it in Fraser's face how it's beaming... Amazing! I wish I could give Fraser a BIG hug. He's such a sweetheart.
Agreed. I watched a different interview before this one where Brendan insisted that he's not actually very funny - he's always been so incredibly humble about his talent, but it was truly puzzling to see him say that. I kinda think that Brendan has struggled (and perhaps still struggles, to a degree) with self esteem issues. Like you said, it's great to see him happy.
That’s a pro move bud- asking questions and filling it in with flattering answers before your target can respond. Turns out when the world sees you as the nicest guy ever…you gotta step it up a tad when Adam Sandler is being a great friend and making the whole interview about you.
Love these guys, you can tell that they've managed to do what many others in their position could not. Traverse Hollywood with their personalities and integrity fully in tact.
Brendan Fraser deserves all the awards this year! I’m so happy he’s back and doing well. He’s really loved in this industry and people are cheering him on. That says alot about his character.
I love the camaraderie between the two and them knowing each for so long. Hearing their conversation and the laughs that are so genuine, them being honest and caring with each other and giving each other kudos is rare sight. I absolutely enjoyed it. 🤘🤘🤘
@Tiggie _ Please see decades of scientific research on the state of the the human mind for those that are self made millionaires vs the minds of those who inherit wealth. The differences are astounding and there is peer reviewed research data that has been published on this nsubject.
Hollywood literally broke his back, then his career, and eventually his spirit, but Brendan took those ten years to put his pieces back together and come out SWINGING! Love ya, big guy, and congrats on all your well deserved reprisal of success. 🙏
ummmm what?? he has been steadily making movies/tv shows he still had a career he even said so just cause you havent heard of them doesnt mean he stopped working smh
In honor of this gem of a man getting his well-earned time in the sun, I am dedicating the remainder of 2022 to watching every movie in which he plays a major role as well as some of his comparatively minor roles.
The way he talks about working with Sadie Sink is just beautiful. And Adam is very obviously genuinely invested in everything Brendan has to say. This is a great way to end 2022.
I just watched two really nice people have an interesting conversation and it was wonderful in every way. The humble brilliance between the two of them is off the charts!
“ He doesn’t play underdogs , he plays champions that are overlooked “..and that my friends is the lesson of the day 📝 Amazing interview hands down 💯👏🏾
@GARBAGE FIREI think you missed that part of the interview, Brendan says Adam plays champions that are overlooked (not underdogs) meaning the characters that Adam Sandler plays in movies. Not Brendan’s place in the industry in real life
Adam has always been amazing person, but this shows how amazing he is. Make it about Brandon not himself. Makes me have more respect than I already had
I love these two I’m so happy they got time to spend with each other and reflect on such great times in there lives. These two were my childhood favorite actors. I’m glad they still have fun doing what they do so we’ll. Brendan, it’s so good to see you doing well and still with such a great and kind hearted tonality. He’s one of the most influential person in my life. He shows his true emotions and feelings with such a great view point of life. Thank you for doing such great work throughout the years and for those to come. :)
Damn, man. We all NEED a true friend in life with the moral compass Adam has. He goes out of his way to inject Farley into almost any/every conversation!!!!! The love he continues to have for Chris is beyond amazing. While I’m at it, this is such a rad clip. No bullshit, fake ass ass kissing. They care about each other and in today’s world(at least here in the US) it’s refreshing to see. Cheers, boys as well as anyone who reads this!!!!
@Scott F I saw him live about a month ago and he did the tribute at that show too. I didn’t expect to tear up after laughing so hard but as you said, you could tell how much he cares. I don’t think anyone expected it and the crowd went crazy for it
Saw Adam Sandler live two days ago and at the end of his show he did a song to Chris Farley. I’ve seen videos of Sandler doing tributes of him before but it was touching to see it live. You can tell he truly misses him and deeply cares for the friendship they had.
I thank both of you guys for making me laugh, smile, cry, and learn how to grow as a man. I can never repay you guys for the lessons I learned from watching the characters you brought to life. Thank you both from the bottom of my heart peace and love y'all 🤟
My admiration and respect for Adam Sandler has deepened. Been wanting to see this interview happen since the start of the Brenaissance and it’s amazing. Big kudos to Adam for letting the spotlight shine on Brendan- his loyalty and love for his friends is immeasurable. It’s so amazing and inspiring to see that when Brendan’s in the spotlight he always takes a chance to share the spotlight with others. It’s a true testament to his kind heart and loving soul. Let’s keep the era going and see more of the resurgence of Brendan Fraser
He ate at our restaurant a long time ago, his server was actually my friend named Michelle and I was the food runner. He tipped $100 on a bill that was less money than that. He was super kind to all the old people who kept going up to the table, he took a picture with the hostess who kind of ambushed him for the photo as he was walking out. Adam Sandler is a true class act.
I been keeping a close eye on the redemption of Brendan.. great man, and there could not have been a greater person to join him on this episode than another man we all love and loves Brendan.
@vegan penguin While I get what you're saying and your sentiment is in the right place for sure. "Redemption" is the wrong word to use there as it means he did something wrong that he's now trying to atone for, which he didn't.
I grew up watching Brendan Fraser and Adam Sandler, those guys mean alot to an entire generation. Lets give Brendan all the support we can, his carreer is getting second air, lets bump it up.
I never thought in a million years I’d see Sandler and Fraser reminiscing about Airheads in 2022. Such an underrated comedy buried in the sands of time. One of best films ever to capture the spirit of metal as well.
Brendan Fraser was such a huge part of my childhood, part of a really great memory one of few that I have with my grandma who sadly passed away when I was just a little kid (she babysat me while my parents went to Canada for my mom to have laser eye surgery and I made her watch The Mummy with me easily 30 times during that week 😂 Even to this day dad always tells me how his mom told him about it laughing and even though i'm sure she was annoyed watching it so much she happily watched it with me fully every single time because it made me so happy 🥰) and was in one of my all time favorite movies (if you guessed The Mummy you're right 🤣) so it really warms my heart to see him doing good ❤️ Love ya Brendan ☺️
"He doesn't play underdogs, he plays champions that are overlooked" Brendan just shifted my entire perspective on Adam Sandler's character career... Such a brilliant choice of words to perfectly describe something I'd never realized.
Wow! Mr. Fraser is an impressive human. I've not seen ANY of his films but I'm so impressed at his depth, intellect, eloquence, humility, and talent. I'll be sure to seek out his films going forward. What a delight it is to see these two men getting recognition for their work.
As someone who grew up in the 90s/00s, it’s crazy to me that there are people out there who have never seen a Brendon Fraser movie. He was such a big star back then.
If he didn't have this unexpected events, he would have easily become one of the top elite actors in the world in the ranks of Dwayne Johnson, RDJ, Chris Hemsworth etc.
I find it wholesome to see Fraser coming back into the limelight in a big way again.He seems incredibly humbled by it. I'm always curious to Aronofsky projects and reading/hearing about this 'The Whale' movie I just have to see it. Great that Fraser got a shot at this movie....can't wait to see it.
I sure hope that was a true story. Adam vouched for Brendan in Airheads. Such a legendary movie of all action films. 🎬 Adam is one of the sweetest human beings in Hollywood. Brendan was worth the fight because every performance he gives is amazing and he doesn't disappoint. Adam knew it too and he was right.
Whole new level of respect for Adam Sandler, he pretty much allowed this to be about Brendan, who deserves everything that's coming his way. What a great friend
I've always liked Adam Sandler. He's always seemed like a good dude. I don't even like his movies but I've always thought Sandler was probably pretty cool..
I really wish Brendan knew how much he inspired people, and how many people enjoyed his films and found comfort from him and how he inspired so much and is so loved. Uncharted is 100% based off Rick and that’s why I love it. Hate how he thinks he’s not appreciated at all. He’s one of my favorites and I hope the next film becomes HUGE and people turn to him more often I’d love to see him more. Marvel FIT THIS MAN IN THE SCHEDULE!! Dude deserves to have something HUGE where he gets the continuous love he deserves and imo that’s in thee MCU..
I love Brendan so much he made so much of my childhood what it is and it broke my heart to see him go thru the things he did. I'm so happy for him that he's doing well and hope to see more of him in the future
So happy to see Brenden's comeback. Been a life long fan. Airheads FOREVER!!!!!! That movie literally inspired me as a child to become a musician. "ROCK N' ROLL!!!!" ~Chaz Darby~ Shout-out to Adam Sandler for letting this interview be about Brenden. ✌️🤘
Guy is a legend being 23 now and back when I was young I was obsessed with the mummy movies as a child and someone from the the UK hot to experience the mummy rude in Florida... The guy has never disappeared from Hollywood in my eyes... Humble kind hearted gentlemen deserves all the praise and success
I can totally buy in on the reality that Adam Sandler is an amazing talk show host. He needs his own Netflix special interviewing people. The guy is everywhere and knows everyone.
Although I agree with you, and would love watching something like that, I don't think Adam Sandler needs to work that hard anymore! Those shows are a lot of work
Two of the best and most underrated and unappreciated of all time they made the 90s and early 00s with their films even though they've both had stinkers they've also both had true classics and both put all their heart and soul into what they do
@D You have it backwards. Sandler has been in plenty (more than enough frankly) and owns his own production company. If you're not happy with what he has been in, blame him. He's not a bad actor, I'm not a Sandler hater.. But your comment is backwards. Replace Sandler with Fraser.
I've been saying how Sandler was underappreciated not just in comedy but in Hollywood in general. We really missed out on some groundbreaking performances by Sandler. If only he's had the chance to be in more movies. He never really got the spotlight he deserved.
Brendan your the true real deal!!! I love that your back ... we have missed you!!! You deserve all that is coming your way!!! Adam... you are a true sweetheart don't ever change!!!
I love love love watching conversations like these. Technology has really given us such a gift... "If I were a fly on the wall for that..." and here we are! A bunch of flies!
Idk why but I wanna hug him he made my childhood and hearing about what has happened to him makes me sad and angry such a great actor I hope I will see him in the future more often
i always hated the way hollywood just tossed him aside along with a few of my other favorites from childhood. This guy made millennial childhoods great. Most of his movies were cheesy af but most movies were back then. They had a certain something to them that words can't describe and we dont fully understand ourselves.
Gotta say, Brendan Fraser's voice is so iconic, I put it up there with Morgan Freeman, Sean Connery and Samuel Jackson. You just know he's the dude talking.
@Ben nope, only weak, dumb people don't get happier with money. If you are still depressed with tons of money, then you are simply an idiot and you don't deserve that money. With money you can help others, and that alone is enough to bring happiness even if your wife died via a brutal murder infront of your eyes, which is of course a scenario that 99.999 percent of unhappy rich people have ever faced.
Adam Sandler is one of the greatest guys in Hollywood. Stayed true to himself, enjoys life and makes sure everyone around him can participate in the success
@Sarah Bacak probably because he lost his best friend who imo didn’t have a lot of moments to show his true side, and we are truly lucky these two are still alive and still doing amazing
Brendan Fraser is one of the quintessential actors of my childhood. The Mummy, George of the Jungle, Bedazzled, School Ties, etc. Comedic/Dramatic powerhouse and it makes me so happy to see him getting all the praise he has deserved for the past 25 years.
Adam Sandler seems like such a nice person, a good friend, humble, kind, wow. I had never seen an interview with him. This was so cool to watch, it felt like they were rummaging in their memories and really having fun remembering.
This conversation is a soothing hug for the souls of all the fans. Through the ages we've all been through so much and it's their beautiful conversation that reminds us just how human we all are in this big journey called life. Love these 2!
Is it just me or is the fact that Adam Sandler starts this interview by basically making Brandon forever indebted to him, Like saying that he basically owes his whole career to Sandler, and that Brendan even tried to chime in that that other director guy "sang a different tune" when he talked to him & then Sandler cut him off quickly saying that he's (the other guy) "a filthy liar", seem like he planned to frame the entire interview like he's some kind of good will demigod? That then all the comments in this section are like singing praises of Sandler like he's some kind of Messiah? I don't know man, just seems kind of fishy to me.
I used to laugh at some of the movies Brendan was in when I was younger, but when he was actually gone I realized how much he had really made an impact on my life as a kid, his movies were fun and adventurous and had become a part of life that was only viewed through the tinted glasses of nostalgia, when I finally learned what had happened to him I felt so sick that he had left, he deserves every bit of recognition he gets, he has come back to show that he is not just a handsome action star but a truly well rounded actor that doesn't need amazing hair and fast paced action to show his talent, God bless you Brendan 🙏
Adam: Spanglish, Punch Drunk Love, 50 First Dates, The Wedding Singer. Brendan: Bedazzled, Blast from the Past, Airheads, The Mummy. You guys both have amazing movies.
"Alcoholism is a disease, but it’s the only one you can get yelled at for having. Goddamn it Otto, you are an alcoholic. Goddamn it Otto, you have Lupus… one of those two doesn’t sound right..." -Mitch Hedberg. I used this because obesity could arguably be interchangeable...
What is truly heartening is knowing how many of Brendan's co-stars from The Rock to Adam Sandler to Elizabeth Hurley have all said how happy they are for Brendan's moment in the spotlight again, and all talking about how much of a nice guy he is.
@Ren it wasn't CGI in the prologue when they showed him make a deal with the dog demon thing. I get your point but they probably met each other on set somehow i guess
@Prince Floof Nah I loved that scene even with its bad cgi. I was a big wrestling fan as a kid so to see even a terribly cgi'd Rock in a major motion picture was fun. But to call The Rock one of Brendan Fraser's co-stars is a bit of a stretch lol. Unless they worked together on a different movie that I'm just not remembering.
Absolutely he’s so genuine and that’s the problem with Hollywood. They go after the ones who just a genuinely nice. They came after him easily. Sad. The people he trusted and gave him his career tried destroying him.
Love the chemistry in this inteview, which is really more of a conversation between friends. The admiriation and mutual respect and love these two have for each other comes through. Both quality human beings in my book.
You can tell how genuinely nice and caring Brendan Fraser is. The way he said he loved Farley and how he loved the time on Air Heads with Adam and everybody. So glad he is going better and back in the spotlight
.....I wonder if Keanu and Brendan have ever met..... Dollars to doughnuts it would end adorably awkward as they attempt to be nice towards each other 😄
We must protect these two men at all costs, absolute icons.
@Anon Smith pretty much yes. However it did eventually come out and the guy is being investigated . Same thing happened with Terry Crews. Not totally sure but I think Adam was on Terry's side to come out about it. Might have with Brendan too.
@Michael Schmitt SO BASICALLY GAY PERVERTS IN HOLLYWOOD ARE SO MAFIA THAT THEY CAN BLACKLIST THAT BIG OF A STAR & GET AWAY WITH IT. GOT IT. PLUS THAT WAS BEFORE SOCIAL MEDIA - CAN'T DO THAT NOW WITHOUT BACKLASH. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW I ESCAPED THE 90S NEVER KNOWING & HE FKN GOT AWAY WITH THAT BS! NOBODY SPOKE UP ON HIS BEHALF?! FKN HOLLYWOOD & THEIR SICK BS!! 🤬😡
@Anon SmithBrendan got blacklisted because a publicity head hit on him. Brendan reported it. And he was dismissed . Because believes this powerful man was a predator til years later.
@Rico Rios people pity Brendan frazer so much these lunatics have created an entire new reality where Brendan Frazier is one of the greatest actors alive.
@Moonlit Skylight lol this is not a fair survey I wouldn’t make conclusions based on this sample pal
It’s hard to understate how much of an affect these two had on me as a kid in the 90’s. They both gave me a place to escape in everyone of there movies from a very abusive home life. To see how cool they are in real life and how well they get along warms my heart
Same ❤
@BigDaddy_Bo I just rewatched both of them recently and felt like a 12 year old kid again. Both just as good as I can remember
@Jona Thon you are so welcome love 💗
Bro, Happy Gilmore and The Mummy were my fav movies. These guys had a bigger impact on the world than they'll ever know
@Christina 🪬 thank you for this beautiful comment. I don’t think people understand how much human empathy can help people in this life 🙏 your comment touched my heart
Would love to see these two in a movie together again. All the love and support to Brendan
A sequel ❤
I would like to see these 2 work together again!
It's always worth watching Airheads again.
🤘😎
That's enough to keep us going until they make something new.
When Brendan said "I loved him" when they were talking about Chris Farley made me well up. Amazing men and so happy we get to be a part of this
@BONES Thank you for your reply. I certainly agree. Best wishes from Virginia🙂
Yeah that broke my heart..
Chris Farley was such a great person
He well upped too
Thank you so much for your comment. I wonder if you read the book "The Chris Farley Show: A Biography in Three Acts."
Me too. The emotion in his voice was palpable. Chris seemed to have such a huge impact on everyone who knew him.
Seeing Brendan Fraser come back into the spotlight, just puts a smile on my face. He seems like a legit good guy, and I'm so happy he's doing work again.
I grew up watching Brendan Fraser and one day, we just didn't see him in movies and shows anymore. I'm so glad to see him getting all the love he deserves.

@Lucas no I'm not I'm a waiter
@Medium D Speaks stop counting other people’s money, you’re missing the point
@ne2i howzit palala!
How much did he tip
Same. Met him hanging out with Rob Schneider in Hawaii.
Two absolute legends of my youth. I couldn't be happier that I get to continue watching movies still being made with them. Especially in the case of Brendan Fraser. I was heart broken with what he went through, but I'm glad he's back and hopefully has many more amazing movies to come!

Like you said, it's great to see him happy.
Brendan Fraser is just a legend who got treated like crap and im so glad he’s back and doin what he wants Long Live Fraser
19:00 "He doesn't play underdogs, he plays champions that are overlooked." That's a hell of a quote right there.
@proboz 1/1000th of a like? You’re a hard mf to impress. 🤨
Have a thousandth like. 👍
That’s a pro move bud- asking questions and filling it in with flattering answers before your target can respond.
Turns out when the world sees you as the nicest guy ever…you gotta step it up a tad when Adam Sandler is being a great friend and making the whole interview about you.
That owwww felt so genuinely happy/thankful
Love these guys, you can tell that they've managed to do what many others in their position could not. Traverse Hollywood with their personalities and integrity fully in tact.
Brendan Fraser deserves all the awards this year! I’m so happy he’s back and doing well. He’s really loved in this industry and people are cheering him on. That says alot about his character.

I have nothing but good wishes for these two-especially Brendan, who has remained so genuine and kind throughout incredible obstacles and abuses.

@Rick Base yeah he's worth a lot of money because he worked his ass off his entire career.
@Tiggie _ Please see decades of scientific research on the state of the the human mind for those that are self made millionaires vs the minds of those who inherit wealth. The differences are astounding and there is peer reviewed research data that has been published on this nsubject.
@Tiggie _ Everything....the richer a person is.......the more complicated their emotional state becomes.
@Rick Base what would his net worth have anything to do with wishing him well? Somehow I’m not surprised people can really be this ignorant.
Hollywood literally broke his back, then his career, and eventually his spirit, but Brendan took those ten years to put his pieces back together and come out SWINGING! Love ya, big guy, and congrats on all your well deserved reprisal of success. 🙏
ummmm what?? he has been steadily making movies/tv shows he still had a career he even said so just cause you havent heard of them doesnt mean he stopped working smh
In honor of this gem of a man getting his well-earned time in the sun, I am dedicating the remainder of 2022 to watching every movie in which he plays a major role as well as some of his comparatively minor roles.
The way he talks about working with Sadie Sink is just beautiful. And Adam is very obviously genuinely invested in everything Brendan has to say. This is a great way to end 2022.
I just watched two really nice people have an interesting conversation and it was wonderful in every way.
The humble brilliance between the two of them is off the charts!
Both were part of my childhood. Great actors.
“ He doesn’t play underdogs , he plays champions that are overlooked “..and that my friends is the lesson of the day 📝 Amazing interview hands down 💯👏🏾
Awesome totally.
🙌🏽
@GARBAGE FIRE hahaha my dood, i think you missed the full context
I also loved, it's not about just talent, but obsession
@GARBAGE FIREI think you missed that part of the interview, Brendan says Adam plays champions that are overlooked (not underdogs) meaning the characters that Adam Sandler plays in movies. Not Brendan’s place in the industry in real life
Adam has always been amazing person, but this shows how amazing he is. Make it about Brandon not himself. Makes me have more respect than I already had
Best comment read here ever!
Man Brendan surely holds those memories with fondness and nostalgia. The 90's were quite something.
I love these two I’m so happy they got time to spend with each other and reflect on such great times in there lives. These two were my childhood favorite actors. I’m glad they still have fun doing what they do so we’ll. Brendan, it’s so good to see you doing well and still with such a great and kind hearted tonality. He’s one of the most influential person in my life. He shows his true emotions and feelings with such a great view point of life. Thank you for doing such great work throughout the years and for those to come. :)
Brendan should have gotten the Oscar for Bedazzled. It was a comedy tour de force!
Damn, man. We all NEED a true friend in life with the moral compass Adam has. He goes out of his way to inject Farley into almost any/every conversation!!!!! The love he continues to have for Chris is beyond amazing. While I’m at it, this is such a rad clip. No bullshit, fake ass ass kissing. They care about each other and in today’s world(at least here in the US) it’s refreshing to see. Cheers, boys as well as anyone who reads this!!!!
@Frosty808 Have you never seen anything like that before?
Here’s the full vid: that explains

Have you seen the Chris Farley crime scene photos? I just saw them and feel absolutely sick.
I thank both of you guys for making me laugh, smile, cry, and learn how to grow as a man. I can never repay you guys for the lessons I learned from watching the characters you brought to life. Thank you both from the bottom of my heart peace and love y'all 🤟
This is such a sweet comment. ❤
Two incredible actors and even more amazing human beings! I love seeing them together
Love both Adam Sandler and Brendan Fraser there movies have brought lots of smiles and emotions when we needed them most.
Two real, unapologetic, talented, hardworking men. Must protect them at all cost.
My admiration and respect for Adam Sandler has deepened. Been wanting to see this interview happen since the start of the Brenaissance and it’s amazing. Big kudos to Adam for letting the spotlight shine on Brendan- his loyalty and love for his friends is immeasurable.

"Brenaissance" is a great word.
Well said! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Brenaisance. So well put. :)
Brenaissance is a great phrase. Well done!!!
He ate at our restaurant a long time ago, his server was actually my friend named Michelle and I was the food runner. He tipped $100 on a bill that was less money than that. He was super kind to all the old people who kept going up to the table, he took a picture with the hostess who kind of ambushed him for the photo as he was walking out. Adam Sandler is a true class act.
The magic is in his eyes, Brendan's eyes tell a story.
I been keeping a close eye on the redemption of Brendan.. great man, and there could not have been a greater person to join him on this episode than another man we all love and loves Brendan.
Comeback is the word.
I get what you mean, and I agree completely, but as the others pointed out, "redemption" wasn't really the best word to use.
@vegan penguin While I get what you're saying and your sentiment is in the right place for sure. "Redemption" is the wrong word to use there as it means he did something wrong that he's now trying to atone for, which he didn't.
@Sherif Mehdi he does, Hollywood wouldn’t book him, and he is fighting for himself now, let’s raise him up instead of u saying nonsense
Brendan has nothing to redeem himself for. We are watching his ascension!
Hustle was in my top 5 this year. And like everyone else, I cannot wait to see The Whale. Please 2023 bring us a Sandler Fraser epic for the ages
I grew up watching Brendan Fraser and Adam Sandler, those guys mean alot to an entire generation.
Lets give Brendan all the support we can, his carreer is getting second air, lets bump it up.
I never thought in a million years I’d see Sandler and Fraser reminiscing about Airheads in 2022. Such an underrated comedy buried in the sands of time. One of best films ever to capture the spirit of metal as well.
My #1 movie still of all time
have you seen lords of chaos? jw. i dont consider myself the arbiter of metal media
It was a fun movie! Do a second one. Bill and Ted did it 🙂
I LOVE that movie!
And Lemmy was in it,too!
I have absolutely no understanding why my younger self hated Brendan Frazier. Seems like such a great guy.
Brendan Fraser was such a huge part of my childhood, part of a really great memory one of few that I have with my grandma who sadly passed away when I was just a little kid (she babysat me while my parents went to Canada for my mom to have laser eye surgery and I made her watch The Mummy with me easily 30 times during that week 😂 Even to this day dad always tells me how his mom told him about it laughing and even though i'm sure she was annoyed watching it so much she happily watched it with me fully every single time because it made me so happy 🥰) and was in one of my all time favorite movies (if you guessed The Mummy you're right 🤣) so it really warms my heart to see him doing good ❤️ Love ya Brendan ☺️
I loved watching this! I love both actors so seeing them interact like this was fascinating!
We need a movies with these too again. Please! 💜🙏🏾
"He doesn't play underdogs, he plays champions that are overlooked"
Brendan just shifted my entire perspective on Adam Sandler's character career... Such a brilliant choice of words to perfectly describe something I'd never realized.
@Apryl Canales It's one of those perfectly worded lines that will stick with me forever, especially when I revisit Adam's movies.
@Kendra Smotherman-Davis A full on light bulb moment for sure!
He is so eloquent and puts feeling into all his words.
@Susie Kim thanks dude
@Sebastián Žúži 19:00
Wow! Mr. Fraser is an impressive human. I've not seen ANY of his films but I'm so impressed at his depth, intellect, eloquence, humility, and talent. I'll be sure to seek out his films going forward. What a delight it is to see these two men getting recognition for their work.
As someone who grew up in the 90s/00s, it’s crazy to me that there are people out there who have never seen a Brendon Fraser movie. He was such a big star back then.
Both above movies are good! I enjoyed “The Mummy”
Watch bedazzled !
Check out Blast from the past
If he didn't have this unexpected events, he would have easily become one of the top elite actors in the world in the ranks of Dwayne Johnson, RDJ, Chris Hemsworth etc.
I find it wholesome to see Fraser coming back into the limelight in a big way again.He seems incredibly humbled by it. I'm always curious to Aronofsky projects and reading/hearing about this 'The Whale' movie I just have to see it.
Great that Fraser got a shot at this movie....can't wait to see it.
I sure hope that was a true story. Adam vouched for Brendan in Airheads. Such a legendary movie of all action films. 🎬 Adam is one of the sweetest human beings in Hollywood. Brendan was worth the fight because every performance he gives is amazing and he doesn't disappoint. Adam knew it too and he was right.
I think it was a joke and he just went along with the bit lol. But I could be reading it wrong
Whole new level of respect for Adam Sandler, he pretty much allowed this to be about Brendan, who deserves everything that's coming his way. What a great friend
Adam hooks up a lot of people. He has what they say “Loyalty”.
-gasp- Not the Pentavrete!
I've always liked Adam Sandler. He's always seemed like a good dude. I don't even like his movies but I've always thought Sandler was probably pretty cool..
@Bruce Charlie bro what? That was super obviously a joke
@Jericho no he wasn't
I really wish Brendan knew how much he inspired people, and how many people enjoyed his films and found comfort from him and how he inspired so much and is so loved.
Uncharted is 100% based off Rick and that’s why I love it.
Hate how he thinks he’s not appreciated at all. He’s one of my favorites and I hope the next film becomes HUGE and people turn to him more often I’d love to see him more.
Marvel FIT THIS MAN IN THE SCHEDULE!! Dude deserves to have something HUGE where he gets the continuous love he deserves and imo that’s in thee MCU..
I love Brendan so much he made so much of my childhood what it is and it broke my heart to see him go thru the things he did. I'm so happy for him that he's doing well and hope to see more of him in the future
So happy to see Brenden's comeback. Been a life long fan. Airheads FOREVER!!!!!! That movie literally inspired me as a child to become a musician.
"ROCK N' ROLL!!!!"

Shout-out to Adam Sandler for letting this interview be about Brenden. ✌️🤘
Guy is a legend being 23 now and back when I was young I was obsessed with the mummy movies as a child and someone from the the UK hot to experience the mummy rude in Florida... The guy has never disappeared from Hollywood in my eyes... Humble kind hearted gentlemen deserves all the praise and success
Lol 23 is young dude...
This is the first actors on actors that I watched in full and lost track of the time. Their chemistry as friends is so genuine.

These two people are the main course of my childhood ❤
I wish these two would do another movie together!
I love ❤️ Brendon Fraser and wish him the best. He makes me laugh and cry I think that's what acting is all about. Best of luck always.
These two were my childhood! I used to watch the mummy on a daily basis from 1st grade-5th grade I always wanted to be Rick O'Connell.
dude even now if the mummy comes on while channel surfing, i always gotta stop and watch the rest.
I can totally buy in on the reality that Adam Sandler is an amazing talk show host. He needs his own Netflix special interviewing people. The guy is everywhere and knows everyone.
Although I agree with you, and would love watching something like that, I don't think Adam Sandler needs to work that hard anymore! Those shows are a lot of work
So happy Brendon is reconnecting with everyone ❤
Brenden and Adam movies were a huge part of my childhood
Two of the best and most underrated and unappreciated of all time they made the 90s and early 00s with their films even though they've both had stinkers they've also both had true classics and both put all their heart and soul into what they do
@D You have it backwards.
Sandler has been in plenty (more than enough frankly) and owns his own production company. If you're not happy with what he has been in, blame him.
He's not a bad actor, I'm not a Sandler hater.. But your comment is backwards. Replace Sandler with Fraser.
I've been saying how Sandler was underappreciated not just in comedy but in Hollywood in general. We really missed out on some groundbreaking performances by Sandler. If only he's had the chance to be in more movies. He never really got the spotlight he deserved.
Brendan your the true real deal!!! I love that your back ... we have missed you!!! You deserve all that is coming your way!!! Adam... you are a true sweetheart don't ever change!!!
The way he said “as long as they’re saying it” just hit hard. He seems so genuinely happy to be back where he belongs.
Both really amazing actors!
So glad they're talking about Airheads. So underrated of a movie!!
Airheads is a such a classic. So underrated
I love love love watching conversations like these. Technology has really given us such a gift... "If I were a fly on the wall for that..." and here we are! A bunch of flies!
If Brendan and Keanu ever had a sit down I think we would just need to call it done with this whole internet thing. It couldn't be topped.
@Laura Carter nah.

I... I didn't know what I needed..... Now that is what the world needs
100% agree! I would love to see that pairing.
Idk why but I wanna hug him he made my childhood and hearing about what has happened to him makes me sad and angry such a great actor I hope I will see him in the future more often
The way Brendan said, I loved him, about Farley was so heartwarming.
I was in middle school when airheads came out. 😂 👌 Classic. Love you guys
i always hated the way hollywood just tossed him aside along with a few of my other favorites from childhood. This guy made millennial childhoods great. Most of his movies were cheesy af but most movies were back then. They had a certain something to them that words can't describe and we dont fully understand ourselves.
Gotta say, Brendan Fraser's voice is so iconic, I put it up there with Morgan Freeman, Sean Connery and Samuel Jackson. You just know he's the dude talking.
It's everything in Brandan Frasers voice, all he had to go through.
i know, know, - hundreds of thousands if not millions ppl have said it but goddamn i truly love Brendan Fraser. what a guy
Lmfao I love how the look on Brendan's face is "god this fuckin guy!" but we all know he really loves Adam 😂😂😂😂
Adam is such a sweetheart for giving Brendan the floor so much. These guys feel like such genuinely kind people
@Ben nope, only weak, dumb people don't get happier with money. If you are still depressed with tons of money, then you are simply an idiot and you don't deserve that money. With money you can help others, and that alone is enough to bring happiness even if your wife died via a brutal murder infront of your eyes, which is of course a scenario that 99.999 percent of unhappy rich people have ever faced.
@SPENCER SHARP money doesn't make people happy, it makes life easier but depression, sadness and other health issues can effect anybody.
@I am the walrus u think its hard to enjoy life with 500 million dollars? lol
Adam Sandler is one of the greatest guys in Hollywood. Stayed true to himself, enjoys life and makes sure everyone around him can participate in the success
@Sarah Bacak probably because he lost his best friend who imo didn’t have a lot of moments to show his true side, and we are truly lucky these two are still alive and still doing amazing
We need an Airheads 2
He needs to be back in movies
Adam is just the best celebrity ever
Brendan Fraser is alive?! I'm happy to see it.
Brendan Fraser is one of the quintessential actors of my childhood. The Mummy, George of the Jungle, Bedazzled, School Ties, etc. Comedic/Dramatic powerhouse and it makes me so happy to see him getting all the praise he has deserved for the past 25 years.
@Cardinal Gay chicken would not even be allowed in today’s movies! Too offensive! Lol
Mrs. Winterbourne!
And his iconic little stint on Scrubs
Encino Man
Airheads
His little cameo in "In The Army Now" was just perfect. If you know, you know.
I see what you're doing here, Adam. And I love you for it.
Adam Sandler seems like such a nice person, a good friend, humble, kind, wow. I had never seen an interview with him. This was so cool to watch, it felt like they were rummaging in their memories and really having fun remembering.
This conversation is a soothing hug for the souls of all the fans. Through the ages we've all been through so much and it's their beautiful conversation that reminds us just how human we all are in this big journey called life.
Love these 2!
Is it just me or is the fact that Adam Sandler starts this interview by basically making Brandon forever indebted to him, Like saying that he basically owes his whole career to Sandler, and that Brendan even tried to chime in that that other director guy "sang a different tune" when he talked to him & then Sandler cut him off quickly saying that he's (the other guy) "a filthy liar", seem like he planned to frame the entire interview like he's some kind of good will demigod? That then all the comments in this section are like singing praises of Sandler like he's some kind of Messiah? I don't know man, just seems kind of fishy to me.
"He doesn't play underdogs he plays champions who are overlooked"
Man that was a pretty badass quote.

I am looking forward to The Whale, and his role in the upcoming Scorcese film Killers of the Flower Moon.
Brendan Fraser is such a solid guy
I used to laugh at some of the movies Brendan was in when I was younger, but when he was actually gone I realized how much he had really made an impact on my life as a kid, his movies were fun and adventurous and had become a part of life that was only viewed through the tinted glasses of nostalgia, when I finally learned what had happened to him I felt so sick that he had left, he deserves every bit of recognition he gets, he has come back to show that he is not just a handsome action star but a truly well rounded actor that doesn't need amazing hair and fast paced action to show his talent, God bless you Brendan 🙏
Blast From the Past stuck with me more than I realized
Adam: Spanglish, Punch Drunk Love, 50 First Dates, The Wedding Singer.
Brendan: Bedazzled, Blast from the Past, Airheads, The Mummy.
You guys both have amazing movies.

Love both of you actors the best of the best & FUNNY! TY FOR YOUR FILMS!⭐💙⭐
How can y'all not talk about "Blast From the Past"?? Probably his best ever lmao
Someone should cast Brendan for Rodney Dangerfield's biographical movie
What is truly heartening is knowing how many of Brendan's co-stars from The Rock to Adam Sandler to Elizabeth Hurley have all said how happy they are for Brendan's moment in the spotlight again, and all talking about how much of a nice guy he is.
@Ren meh for 2002 it wasnt too bad lol there had never been a humanoid cgi before so it was literally the first.
@Ren it wasn't CGI in the prologue when they showed him make a deal with the dog demon thing. I get your point but they probably met each other on set somehow i guess
@Prince Floof Nah I loved that scene even with its bad cgi. I was a big wrestling fan as a kid so to see even a terribly cgi'd Rock in a major motion picture was fun. But to call The Rock one of Brendan Fraser's co-stars is a bit of a stretch lol. Unless they worked together on a different movie that I'm just not remembering.
Hell ya!
Absolutely he’s so genuine and that’s the problem with Hollywood. They go after the ones who just a genuinely nice. They came after him easily. Sad. The people he trusted and gave him his career tried destroying him.
The best conversation I ever seen.
I’d love to see these 2 and Buscemi reunite in a Safdie Bros movie. ❤️
Love the chemistry in this inteview, which is really more of a conversation between friends. The admiriation and mutual respect and love these two have for each other comes through. Both quality human beings in my book.
I’ve been trying to recreate the sandwich from Spanglish for 20 years 😂😂😂 I have never felt so seen
You can tell how genuinely nice and caring Brendan Fraser is. The way he said he loved Farley and how he loved the time on Air Heads with Adam and everybody. So glad he is going better and back in the spotlight
.....I wonder if Keanu and Brendan have ever met..... Dollars to doughnuts it would end adorably awkward as they attempt to be nice towards each other 😄
@AngryPuppy thats enough screentime son.
@OMGmacros user name "AngryPuppy"
@AngryPuppy work on your reading comprehension
@AngryPuppy what are you so mad for. Be happy mr Fraser gets the acknowledgement he always deserved
I dig it. That's two iconic people there.
