As far as I know Brendan Fraser has dual US/Canadian citizenship, so I rv'd the changes describing him as an American. If somebody can cite an authoritative source that says he's American, please feel free to change the page, preferably after citing. tnx. --Neschek 21:03, 20 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

If his father was on diplomatic service (which I'd think the Government Office of Tourism would constitute) then he won't be a US Citizen unless he's naturalised. Roche-Kerr (talk) 13:35, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Considering that one of the references states "Born to Canadian parents in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1968, Fraser carries two passports wherever he goes", I've reinserted it. It's not unusual for a person born in such circumstances to have dual citizenship. Wildhartlivie (talk) 15:12, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Televison?

I recall the name didnot have televison roles also? cmacd 17:50, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Brendan Fraser has been on three episodes of Scrubs. Is there any reason why it's not in the article? Skyezx ^(talk) 04:50, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Frazer

I've removed His original name "Frazer" was later changed to Fraser because his first agent believed the 'z' did not have the "American boy" appeal. Since I haven't been able to source this. The only reference to Frazer I've found just seem to be unnoticed misspellings. If somebody can source it please feel free to add it back in. --ImmortalGoddezz 04:02, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All of the sons - born in Los Angeles,

From the Personal life section: "they have three sons: Griffin Arthur Fraser,[1] born September 17, 2002, in Los Angeles, Holden Fletcher Fraser born August 16, 2004, in Los Angeles and Leland Francis Fraser born May 2, 2006, in Los Angeles."
I would suggest removing the "in Los Angeles" part from all 3 places. What do you think? Thanks Kvsh5 (talk) 17:51, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It could be changed to "all born in Los Angeles", but it shouldn't all be removed. Wildhartlivie (talk) 20:29, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your quick reply. Would you make the change, or wait for more feedback? Kvsh5 (talk) 14:13, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GI Joe

I have changed the Filmography section to reflect that Brendan Fraser has confirmed that he is not going to play "Gung Ho" in the new GI Joe film ^[1]. If some one else would like to clean up the GI Joe page that at first says he is not playing the character, and then doubles back on itself and says that he is, please do so. I am new at editing, and I would rather not try and change that page, since it probably has very high traffic. 198.173.201.184 (talk) 17:28, 22 July 2009 (UTC)JAllen[reply]
