Brendan Fraser learns new way to move in Venice obesity drama

VENICE : U.S. actor Brendan Fraser, returning to the big screen as a leading man after a nine-year absence, said on Sunday playing the obese hero of"The Whale" was the biggest challenge of his career.

" is the most important message to put out in the world right now. Everyone is leaning into the cynicism and darkness and giving up hope. That is exactly what we don't need right now," Aronofsky said.
