Rachel Weisz shared the big screen with some real-life stars including John Hannah as the adventurous older brother, Jonathan Carnahan … and of course THE Brendan Fraser as the treasure chasing dreamboat, Rick O’Connell.
RW went on to act in an impressive list of movies and has won an Academy Award, a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award.
