Brendan Fraser, who played Rick O'Connell in TheMummy franchise, gives his take on The Mummy Returns' Scorpion King's CGI appearance: 'It’s just perfect, how things work out.”
The Mummy Returns star Brendan Fraser has defended the infamous Scorpion King CGI in the sequel. Fraser served as the lead in three Mummy films from 1999 to 2008, starring as the adventurer Rick O'Connell. In The Mummy Returns, the 2001 sequel to the original film, Dwayne Johnson made his feature film debut as Mathayus the Scorpion King, an antagonist in the movie.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY In the two decades since The Mummy Returns, the movie has been criticized heavily for the CGI that brought Johnson's Scorpion King to life. The visual effects artists that worked on the film have previously spoken about the effects not standing the test of time, explaining a few reasons for the Scorpion King's notoriously rough look.
“I know, I know, be kind. The guys who did the CGI of the Scorpion King, at the premiere, they were like, ‘hey, how are you, good job. You know, we did the CG for the Scorpion King.’ And they kind of went, ‘yeah, we needed a little more time [Laughs] before we…’ But it was very last minute, I don’t know.
Despite the much-acknowledged issues with the Scorpion King's CGI, which has been the source of ridicule by Mummy fans in the years since the sequel's release, Fraser raises a compelling point about the issue. The rough CGI adds a component of nostalgia to the cult sequel, which has only grown in the two decades since The Mummy Returns premiered.
Will The Mummy 4 Happen? In the twenty-one years since The Mummy Returns, both Fraser and Johnson have been outwardly supportive of one another, expressing a mutual appreciation for their time spent on the sequel despite never shooting a scene together face to face. Fraser enjoys a good relationship with most of his former co-stars from the franchise, who have expressed joy about his career success in the wake of his acclaimed new film The Whale.
