You are beloved Brendan, the 90s kids have you. Well deserved.

His brain working on overdrive to think of all those whale puns, I love him 😭😭

I almost cried when I watched this. Austin Butler looked happy for him. His time is coming. He's an amazing actor too.

As someone who doesn't care about Oscars, Actors, or even movies anymore, for some reason I feel overwhelming joy seeing this man acknowledged and validated.

I was so nervous because it was either him or Austin Butler. But I'm so happy that Brendan Fraser finally won an Oscar. What a comeback!

Favourite award of the night. Well deserved Brendan Fraser. 👏

Hallee and Jessica got surprised when they read his name, Austin and Collin jumped on their seats and applauded, this might probably be the most happy Oscar winning of all times, go on Brendan, we love you

I think the most beautiful part of this moment was the excitement on the faces of Colin Farrell and Austin Butler. The fact that Colin immediately cheered and Austin shot to his feet just prove what amazing people they are to show that much love and excitement for him. My respect for them not just as actors but as Humans grew immensely during this moment. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I love how Austin Butler gave him a standing ovation. He was the only one out of the nominees that seemed legitimately happy for him. I think he knew Brendan deserved that award.

I think this is my favorite Oscar moment/win in all my 52 years. Go Brendan!!!!!! I can't wait to see what he does next.

This man is an angel. 100% deserved this win ❤

Before MARVEL before DC He's the superhero of 90's kids ❤️

This guy struggled his whole life to achieve this. Went through more shit then anyone in Hollywood to get there. He has no idea what to say, because after all he went through he never thought he’d get this. Good for you man

I was rooting for both Austin and Brendan. I’m glad Brendan won

Well deserved. His acting was brilliant in The Whale. The movie was also powerful. Hopefully Brendan starts acting more often because he's one of the best.

Just watched The Whale. Every emotion he felt, I felt. 😢 Such a beautiful film and performance!!! Well deserved 👏

Literally never been happier for someone to win an Oscar. This is the most deserving win in a very long time.

Great that he received a standing ovation. The audience were immediately on their feet after the announcement.

I never saw the movie but his passion and emotional response says it all. He was always a great actor and had some rough times and it’s nice to see someone so overwhelmed by emotions winning an Oscar.

Brendan Fraser deserves the world, he's such a pure soul who went through shit that should've never happened to him. Brandon we all love you so so much! ❤

This man will always have my utmost respect, love and understanding. He went through so much and came back... and he deserves the absolute world

Look at his face. He was so humbled at the moment. Nothing but pure gratitude. This is what we relate with. This is what hope looks like. Sending my wishes and energy to all the people trying out there.

1:10 Mr. Fraser looked so thrilled and happy. The extraordinary quality of the actors who competed with him only brightened his victory even more.

It's the first time I've cried for an actor I'm so proud and happy for him ❤

Brendan deserves it. Not out of pity because of the hell he went through, but because he was always a phenomenal actor. Always loved the guy in whatever he was in and I was heartbroken when I read up on what he was going through. The joy I felt when I saw him return and then winning the award was through the roof.

This is a man that I relate to: beating the odds and being so incredibly humble. One of the greatest performances in film history.

So proud of you Brendan. You deserved it, Love.

Watched this before, I was happy to see him back in Hollywood. Came back after watching the Whale, I can't tell you how glad and happy I am that he's back in Hollywood. 😭❤️

Soo glad to see him back ! He deserve a great comeback ! 🙏🏻

I literally woke up my house when I screamed with excitement when I heard his name. What a sweetheart he is. He deserved to win this Oscar for best actor. ❤

My all time favorite and the companion of my childhood.. amazing almost cried for him. 😢😢 Lots of love from Afghanistan...

Absolutely love and was rooting for Austin Butler to win best Actor, but completely understand WHY Brendan Fraser received the award, after watching The Whale a week after the Oscars. Incredible job Brendan, your utterly moving performance made me tear up MANY times and I literally sobbed at the end! Congratulations to you, Brendan!! Well deserved!🥰

❤❤❤❤Brendan was my fave actor in the 90s❤❤❤

Brendan Frasier so deserved this award. I was so excited to even find out he was a nominated for this award, and then he won it, you can imagine how I felt then. We love you Brendan. Austin will have his chance again.

I just watched the movie, and this man TRULY DESERVES IT!!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

The thing, and I say this mostly to younger audience, Brendan Fraser has been always unbelievably charismatic and full of energy in his younger day during the 80s,90s and early 2000s. Anytime you see him you would smile because of his amazing energy. He went through a lot of shit and to see him back again after everything he went through is really heart-warming, we love you and congrats Brendan!

Brandon Fraser 🙏🙏🙏 What a comeback 💪💪💪💪

When I saw he was nominated, I knew he’d win the Oscar from the trailer alone, I hadn’t even seen the film. That single clip ‘I need to know that I’ve done one thing right in my life’ told me that it was going to be a great film. This is an amazing comeback.

brendan is adorable, he deserves the world

Deserved to Win I'm happy form him 😁💪🫡

I’m so happy for him! He deserves it.

I hope this is the beginning of a resurgence for Brendan. He is such a good actor who seemed to have been forgotten about. His performance in The Whale was the best I’ve seen in a very long time.

The ONLY award that I credit being awarded on merit alone, well played Brendan, well played!

He did an outstanding job. He deserved this award. Love him from the 90s. So happy for him!!!

I want to give some love for Bill Nighy. It is his FIRST nomination and it was a wonderful performance by a veteran actor. Happy Brendan won.

Never been so happy for an actor to win

Even Bill Nighy smiled when Brendan Frasier won. I hardly knew he could.

Brendan Fraser in The Whale, the 55 year old actor he’s born in 1968, the same year as both of my parents were born and I can’t even say enough I’m a big fan of you so much and you’ve been an actor since 1990 as a 22 year old man and congratulations very proud of you my man?!

He really deserves that award, recently watched that movie and it made me really emotional.

1:13 when youre here for brendan's speech but Aftersun's under pressure crushes outta nowhere

Brenden Frasier did a great, terrific and awesome comeback. Growing up in the 90s, I always admired him and his movies.

OMG I cried ❤️❤️His heart is exploding with happiness ❤️🥺 He is amazing he certainly deserves it 😍😍❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻

i almost cried for brendan fraser..he needed this....

This moment when Brendan won the Oscar it was the most emotional moment I have ever lived in my life. Brendan god bless you always you are an amazing human being God was always by your side and I am pretty sure that your kids are such a blessing in your life

Brendan's reaction looked like his soul left his body for a second and shot right back in lol I would've reacted the same. Well deserved sir Bravo!

The force will be with you! ALWAYS!!!!

so well deserved ! my childhood hero 🙏

I just finished watching this movie and was in tears by the credits. Well done Brendan you deserve this, such an amazing movie and spectacular performance ❤

He deserves all the happiness in the world ❤

I’m crying . I love this man. ❤

1000% Deserved i was so much hoping this for him 🎉

I loved Austin butler in Elvis but Brendan is the right winner here. Love him!

Im crying.. im so thankful Brendan won.. his role was beautiful and heartbreaking...

They all deserved Oscars that night. Colin especially. But in the end we needed brendan to get it. I'm glad the academy gave him it. Kudos to Darren for pulling a "washed up actor" into his film. Sometimes people need the light and that's what the film is all about

Such a deserved Oscar win for best actor unlike last year’s

I am so happy for him, has always been one of my favorites. He deserves that Oscar. He has been through so much and is so talented a beautiful colorful soul that shines bright.

You can tell the man is genuinely grateful hey!! We watched The Whale last night and both of us were teary hey and his performance.. well it was so good it was like we forgot we were watching a movie!! His award was well earned!!

I'm so blessed to have met Brendan at NYCC in 2022. He signed my Mummy VHS and grabbed the shirt I made impromptu with "XO". I could've talked to him for hours. He was so sweet.

Well deserved. He is so emotional here. Good work, man, an amazing movie.

I am so thrilled for Brendan👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️

I just watched this movie tonight and he deserved that win. One of my favorite movies of the year.

This brings me to tears every time. He is incredible!

What a lovely, humble, brilliant man ❤️ he deserves it so much.

Both brendan and leo were my favorite oscar winners I was like FINALLY , they deserved it

I don't know what to like more about Brandon...his captivating voice ,his emotive eyes ,his expressive face, his understanding of his craft❤❤❤❤

Protect this man at all costs! 👏🏼👏🏼

What an incredible man….so happy for him 👏👏👏👏👏👏

I didn’t even watch the Oscars I could care less about the Oscars. I didn’t care who win who didn’t win just a bunch of rich people just putting themselves on the back, but watching Brendan Fraser win and just watching this one part of the Oscars I can’t have been happier for him. He deserves every single award. he has received that for his performance!! I’m so glad he won. He was the one who was supposed to win he deserved it, and every award that he has coming.

Well deserved!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis and Brendan Fraser, god what a feel good year. Oscars really need to make people feel good and emotional like this every year

Oh, we’re gonna need a Brendan Fraser movie after this one. What a life of redemption and kindness he’s lived

This man and the movies he starred in were huge comforts in my life and helped me through so much-even though I dont care about the oscars I feel incredibly happiness seeing someone who went through so much finally get even an ounce of the acknowledgement and support he deserves-I genuinly hope that the rest of his life will be filled with happiness and peace :')

This man is pure and above legend what a movie with a pure emotion ❤❤❤❤

Im so glad for Brendan 💖

I'm so glad he won, very well deserved.

Since « School Ties » he has demonstrated what an amazing actor he is. ⭐️👏🏽

Marvelous movie and great acting! I was afraid to watch this after losing a friend to obesity. Then I learned that Brendan Fraser was starring in it and had to watch. Ascending to heaven in the end...just a beautiful scene. 💕

What a man! This has restored my faith in the Oscars! All of the nominees were deserving.

I love my childhood actor😂😂

I love Brendan but feel bad for Ausitn, he was incredible but he's so young and has plenty of time ups his belt. I am sure it was a huge honour for him to be nominated.

Ohh my god i miss him finally his back. Congrats deserve to win best actor.❤

Cried so hard… congrats! You are the one who deservesd it!! 🎉🎉

Colin Farrel dedicated his life doing those artsy films from Ondine, In Bruges, The Killing of a Sacred Deer to The Lobster. He should've won.

He is My Childhood Adventure Hero .. Deserving one

I never gave two shits about oscars, but... Holy shit I was a sobbing mess when Brendan finally won. He's a national treasure and to this day I'm so overjoyed to see him succeed

Awww my bae deserved this ❤

He deserves everything good in life. Brendan has been entertaining us for a long time. He is fantastic. God bless you Brendan.

You can see it meant so much to him😍

Love you Brendan...this is right...is right...is one of the best Oscar's in academy awards❤️❤️❤️

O QUE E MAIS EMOCIONANTE E QUE SE PERCEBE QUE OS OUTROS ATORES CONCORRENTES A ELE FICARAM FELIZ PELO RESULTADO,Q DEUS ABENÇOE 🙏🏻
