From correspondents in London, England, 01:32 PM IST

Actor Brendan Fraser, who will be seen in part three of the 'Mummy' series, says he is looking forward to turning 40 on Dec 3.

Thesun.co.uk reports him saying: 'I'm really looking forward to it. I've made it! I'll be there. It's like earning another stripe. These crows' feet are mine!'

Titled 'The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor', the film doesn't have Rachel Weisz and Fraser admitted that he was a bit disappointed when she did not return for the part three of the 'Mummy' series after having starred in the first two.

He said: 'To be honest with you, when I read the script I couldn't see or hear anything without her voice. She's my friend and my colleague from having done two movies together. It's a family.'

But he was all praise for his new co-star Maria Bello and called her 'sassy, classy and has a nice personality'.
