The actor starred in's Bedazzled after gaining prominence in his role as Rick O'Connell in The Mummy. A remake of the 1967 British film of the same name, Bedazzled follows Elliot, a meek and lonely man who makes a deal with the Devil (Elizabeth Hurley) in order to turn his life around. Directed by Harold Ramis, Bedazzled served as one of the several quirky comedies that established Fraser as a relatable and funny on-screen presence.
While appearing in a video for GQ, Fraser revealed that one scene from Bedazzled earned the approval of Cleese, a member of the British comedy troupe known as Monty Python. The group's significant influence on the modern comedy scene in the decades since sketch comedy televsion show Monty Python's Flying Circus, which aired in 1969, cannot be understated.
