Newly single Brendan Fraser is dating actress Maria Bello, according to reports. At Christmas, Fraser announced he and his wife of nine years Afton Smith were divorcing - and onset sources claim he may have already landed a replacement in his The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor co-star Bello, a 40-year-old single mother.

An insider tells the National Enquirer, "Brendan and Maria became tight because the shoot in China was challenging and Maria was a friendly face. They had chemistry for sure. It lit up the set, and everyone commented on it."
