Ben Stiller Says He’s Having A Difficult Time Making Movies In Hollywood For This Reason
Something’s got to give, right? There’s a new report that says Ben Stiller has confessed to having a difficult time making movies in Hollywood and apparently there’s a reason for it. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
Ben Stiller Says He’s Having A Difficult Time Making Movies In Hollywood For This Reason
According to a new report, the Hollywood actor, who endorsed Kamala Harris for President, has said woke culture has destroyed ‘edgier’ comedy.
While discussing his 2008 Tropic Thunder film which has now been labelled ‘racially offensive’ after his co-star Robert Downey Jr was accused of ‘blackface’ the actor said it would now be considered ‘dicey’ to make such a movie.”
Stiller said, “The idea of Robert playing that character who’s playing an African American character, I mean, incredibly dicey.”
“Even at the time, of course, it was dicey too. The only reason we attempted it was I felt like the joke was very clear in terms of who that joke was on – actors trying to do anything to win awards.”
The actor added, “But now, in this environment, I don’t even know if I would have ventured to do it, to tell you the truth. I’m being honest.”
What’s Next For Ben Stiller And His Career?
Many critics have commented about the matter with: “They all support the ideology until it finally comes after them or something they care about. And Sharon Stone said we’re the dumb ones. Endorsed Kamala, whining about woke.”
Another critic wrote, “Tropic Thunder was at the time a groundbreaking comedy that we all absolutely loved! Those were the Chappelle Show days and I remember them fondly. It’s even more groundbreakingly funny now in 2024 BECAUSE of how many ppl it triggers.”
And then there was this comment as well: “This maybe interesting but who gives a flying copulation what Ben Stiller thinks? However, I still chuckle when I remember Ben Stiller’s father’s performances on Seinfeld. Ben is all writer and director.”
