During Tropic Thunder, Ben Stiller faced a hilarious directing dilemma—no one knew when he actually meant “cut.” Since Stiller both directed the movie and played actor Tugg Speedman, who also said “cut” in scenes, the cast was constantly confused. Danny McBride recalled asking, “Does he mean stop filming, or is that his character talking?” Eventually, Stiller solved it by saying, “Stop. Really. Just stop now. I’m serious.” — truly peak Tropic Thunder energy. | Did You Catch This?
