Fans might recognize him as the easily annoyed Wilbur Turnblad in the lively musical Hairspray, where his comedic timing added warmth to the eccentric family at the story’s heart. Beyond that, Stiller’s performances in iconic projects like Seinfeld, where he portrayed the blustering Frank Costanza, are often the moments that steal scenes through sheer personality.
