As the anticipation around the 2023 Golden Globes nominations builds up, Hollywood actor Brendan Fraser, who is gearing up for his upcoming movie ‘The Whale’, is already signaling his intention to boycott the ceremony.
Brendan Fraser, who’s receiving career-best reviews for his dramatic turn in Darren Aronofsky’s ‘The Whale’, told GQ for its cover story that he will not attend the Golden Globes ceremony in January if he is nominated, as he is widely expected to be, reports Entertainment Weekly.
“I have more history with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association than I have respect for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association,” Brendan Fraser said bluntly. “No, I will not participate.”
Brendan Fraser reasoning, for those who have followed the former heartthrob’s rollercoaster career, is obvious: “It’s because of the history that I have with them,” he explained, quoted by Entertainment Weekly. “And my mother didn’t raise a hypocrite. You can call me a lot of things, but not that.”
