Brendan Fraser exchanged gummies for Mummy-themed bumper stickers on BAFTAs red carpet

Academy Award nominee Brendan Fraser continues to be one of the absolute stars of this film awards season.

While doing red carpet across the pond for Sunday’s BAFTA ceremony, Fraser shared an absolutely wonderful moment with British film personality Ali Plumb.

As Plumb prepared to do a brief interview with Fraser as he headed into the awards show, he gave The Whale star a set of very Fraser-appropriate bumper stickers.

They read: “Honk if you’d rather be watching the 1999 cinematic masterpiece The Mummy starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz.”

Fraser was elated to receive the bumper stickers, but he didn’t let Plumb leave the interview empty-handed. Fraser shared a packet of Haribo gummy bears as a token of his appreciation.

Seriously, can you find a better red carpet interview? Fraser is beloved on the internet and with film fans young and old, and his awards run for The Whale has sparked renewed appreciation for his varied career.

While it’s yet to be seen if he’ll actually win the Oscar for Best Actor in March, it’s hard to argue that he’s not a huge winner no matter what happens.
