Ben Stiller (Greg Focker) was recently seen in the 20th Century Fox film Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story (just one of the many movies in the Ben Stiller filmography), opposite Vince Vaughn. The film opened number one at the box office and was the biggest grossing comedy of the summer. This is just a single example of the hilarious comedy films in the Ben Stiller filmography with him as one of the main characters. Earlier this last year, he starred as classic television character Starsky, opposite Owen Wilson as Hutch, in Todd Philips' smash hit comedy Starsky and Hutch (another example of comedy movie in the Ben Stiller filmography). Even Jennifer Aniston had the opportunity to be in one of the humorous films with Ben Stiller in the romantic comedy Along Came Polly. The fact that the Ben Stiller biography includes that the legendary comedians Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara are his parents, it is no surprise that Ben Stiller has followed in his family's footsteps. Yet before he even got to Hollywood, he put in several consistently solid years in theater (as stated in the Ben Stiller biography).
