Batgirl actor Brendan Fraser spotted in Glasgow restaurant Caprese Don Costanzo

Hollywood actor Brendan Fraser surprised staff at a Glasgow restaurant when he popped in for a bite to eat.

The 53-year-old is currently in Glasgow filming scenes for the new Batgirl movie.

And when he popped into Caprese Don Constanzo on Woodside Crescent, the staff were delighted to host such an icon in their restaurant.

Over on their Instagram page, the restaurant posted some snaps of the staff posing with the star.

They wrote: "This afternoon we had the pleasure of hosting Hollywood legend Brendan Fraser."

He has recently been spending a lot of time in Glasgow for the filming of the new Bat Girl movie.

Earlier this week, images were released of Brendan - who is playing the role of the villainous Firefly - in an explosive scene.

He was seen emerging from a burning pharmacy surrounded by smoke.

Brendan, who was wearing a baseball cap and khaki jacket with white bandages around his hands, was holding a bottle of pills during the shoot, which saw the inside of the building ablaze.

Batgirl has been filming in the Merchant City over the last week and more scenes are planned for coming weeks and months.

Glasgow has doubled up as Gotham City in blockbusters like The Batman and The Flash, as well as the backdrop for the latest Indiana Jones film.

The 53-year-old actor is well known for iconic roles in The Mummy and George of the Jungle before taking a hiatus from Hollywood and acting.

Batgirl is likely to be on HBO Max sometime in 2023.
