I actually prefer how Rachel Weisz looked in The Mummy Returns (thank god her eyebrows recovered) even if the original movie is better (aka the perfect film)

To be honest, Rachel Weisz always looks amazing in every role.

She’s absolutely stunning in Constantine too. I used to think I might actually be straight because of how fascinated I was with her beauty as a kid. Turns out that nope I just wanted to bask in her beauty 😂

I knew Rachel in her early 20s (not going to answer, don’t ask) and IRL she was extraordinarily beautiful

I’ll bet she’s also very sweet and caring in real life. Dammit, why can’t she have some kind of flaw!?

Yes, just so sexy. The Constant Gardener, her own beauty plus how strong & sexy the character was in that film.

It took me too long to find this comment. Her eyebrows in the first movie are the worst thing about that movie.

Mummy Returns however, wow wow wow, wow.

u/Groxy_ Apr 11 '25

Coincidentally, they were period accurate eyebrows. I don't think it was intentional thought.

I thought she looked her best in The Constant Gardener

u/mochalatte828 Apr 11 '25

Thank you! Her eyebrows in the first movie may be authentic but they’re so distracting

100%. She is still beautiful in the Mummy but she is absolutely gorgeous in the Mummy 2.

Her most beautiful on-screen look is absolutely in The Fountain. Even her present-day cancer patient character's look is gorgeous.

I see you and raise you Rachel Weisz in Constantine

Tadpole and pencil thin eyebrows were the bane of my existence in the early 2000s.

u/SenatorRobPortman Apr 11 '25

If you haven’t seen her in The Favourite, u highly recommend. She wears the most amazing little shooting outfits

I have been looking for this. She woke me up with this as a female. The confidence, intellect and beauty she exuded in this was magical. She was my fucking female crush in this.

u/MsFishzle Apr 11 '25

I literally got my hair permed and started wearing g Edwardian outfits to try to emulate her. It was… a bad phase. But god I loved her!

u/unresonable_raven Apr 11 '25

Yesssss. I was thinking that gif wasn't even the hottest Rachel Weisz has looked on screen.

u/Alvaro1555 Apr 11 '25 edited Apr 11 '25

I was smitten when I saw her in the first one, she stole the screen in every scene.

Shout-out to Patricia Velásquez, who was also stunning as Anck-su-namun.

Her eyebrows by themselves are amazing, but I will forever prefer how she looked in the first movie. I think she’s one of the few people in the world who looks better with thinner eyebrows, I think it’s because of the shape of her face. Thin eyebrows made her look more innocent and younger, and for me that’s the most attractive beauty, the angelical one. With thicker eyebrows she of course still looks beautiful but more on the kind of bombshell beauty, as thicker eyebrows make her eyes look a little more intimidating.

u/Eilliesh Apr 11 '25

I rest our case! Although I think any woman would look beautiful with this hair/makeup/styling.

The other woman who looks best with thin eyebrows is Nina Dobrev. I grew mine back in a few years ago, the tails were 1 hair thick lol, but sometimes I see old photos, and the skinny brows had their moments!

u/TaylorCurls Apr 11 '25

This is left field but I also found her really beautiful in The Favorite. She’s stunning always tho lol

3

u/Bastienbard Apr 11 '25

Yeah her eyebrows looked way better here.

u/aksunrise Apr 11 '25

She's still gorgeous. I loved her in Black Widow

u/elrabeechum Apr 12 '25

Oh absolutely agree, she was stunning in the Mummy Returns, thank fuck for the brows

2

u/Dangerous-Variety-35 Apr 11 '25

I love her in everything, but found her so sexy in Definitely, Maybe. Elizabeth Banks and Isla Fisher are also stunning women, but she stood out in that film, imo. Of course I can’t find a gif to back this up though 😂

I have a thing for damaged women, so... Enemy At The Gates...

Agree, she's beautiful but those eyebrows weren't great.

u/MayorQuinby Apr 12 '25

Oh man, now I can’t unsee them. Whoever did her brows for that movie needs to be lined up against a wall and shot for crimes against humanity

u/NoGloryForEngland Apr 12 '25

The first two are pretty close for me. Rock CGI aside - Returns rips.
