Brendan Fraser's recent rise in popularity has sparked the creation of a new piece of Superman fan art. Despite facing mistreatment in Hollywood, the acclaimed actor has had a successful career with various roles. However, he never had the opportunity to portray Superman on screen. To rectify this, an artist took it upon themselves to imagine Fraser in the iconic role.
Artist BobbyArt, known for his Photoshop skills in reimagining stars as superheroes, recently shared a new artwork on Instagram. This particular piece explores what it might have been like if Fraser had been cast as Superman in the past. However, BobbyArt's work goes beyond simple copy-and-paste techniques. His creations are so impressive that they could easily pass as official concept art or promotional images. With this artwork, BobbyArt has managed to transport us to an alternate universe where Fraser portrayed the iconic superhero.
At first glance, Fraser is seen wearing the classic Superman suit while striking a heroic pose. But upon closer inspection, one notices the artist's attention to detail. For instance, the "underwear" portion of the suit has been designed to resemble boxer briefs instead of the traditional tighty whiteys or red briefs. This slight alteration adds a touch of Fraser's personal style to the character. The artwork features two versions of Fraser - one as Superman, exuding a perfect blend of heroism and humility, and the other as Clark Kent, with an innocent babyface, thick glasses, and a sleek hairstyle that effectively conceals his true identity.
Despite his unfortunate luck with DC properties, Fraser received a positive reaction from Batgirl star Leslie Grace regarding their collaboration. However, the unexpected cancelation of the film was disappointing for many, including Fraser, as it prevented viewers from seeing his portrayal of the Firefly character. Nevertheless, Fraser has been experiencing success in other areas, notably winning the Oscar for Best Actor for his exceptional performance in The Whale.
Although he did not secure the Superman role, it is evident that Fraser has a promising future, with many fans urging Marvel to cast him in their upcoming projects. He endured a great deal of suffering in the past due to manipulative and toxic individuals, and he deserves nothing but the best moving forward (even if he had not experienced such hardships). Therefore, let us hope that the Brenaissance continues to thrive for a considerable length of time.
