Brendan Fraser just made a rare red carpet appearance with his sons, Holden Fletcher Fraser and Leland Francis Fraser.
On Tuesday, May 26, the Mummy and George of the Jungle star posed for photos with two of the three sons he shares with his ex-wife, Afton Smith. The trio was dressed to the nines for the New York City premiere of Brendan’s film Pressure.
For the star-studded event at the AMC Lincoln Square, the Whale actor, 57, donned a mossy-green suit with a matching tie and a lighter shirt. Holden, 21, opted for a more khaki-colored shirt, dark jeans, and a light undershirt. Meanwhile, Leland, 20, wore a slightly more green button-down shirt with dark jeans. All three looks were expertly coordinated.
Brendan also shares a third son, Griffin Fraser, 23 — who seemingly prefers life away from the spotlight — with Smith. The Rental Family and his ex married in 1998, with Smith filing for divorce in 2007. The divorce was finalized in 2009.
During a 2023 interview on The Drew Barrymore Show, host Drew Barrymore asked Brendan for advice on being a single parent. “Have a great relationship with your partner, and that way you’ll never not put your kids first,” he shared, per She Knows.
Brendan added, “At the tender age of 54, right now, I feel like I’m coming into my own after all these years, but I wouldn’t have been able to were it not for them, and the trial and error that you make along the way.”
In Pressure, Brendan plays General Dwight D. Eisenhower in the historical drama that follows the 72 hours leading up to D-Day during World War II. The film also stars Andrew Scott, Kerry Condon, Chris Messina, and Damian Lewis, among others. It was directed by Anthony Maras.
Pressure, hits theaters on May 29
