Hair raising: Brendan Fraser's hair was thinning severely in 2003; yesterday he stepped out in Shanghai with a full crown

It was clear in 2003 that the one time pin-up was thinning rapidly, but as he wrapped filming the third instalment of the Mummy franchise in Shanghai yesterday, his long mane had made a rather miraculous comeback.

Happy: the Mummy actor appeared rather chuffed with his regained locks

Fraser is reprising his role as Rick O'Connell for The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, however his former co-star Rachel Weisz has not signed up for the third movie.

The latest instalment moves to the Far East, with Rick unearthing the mummy of the first Emperor of Qin - a cursed shape-shifting entity.

Maria Bello will now play heroine Evelyn O'Connell, and up and coming Australian TV star Luke Ford will star as the couple's son.
