Ben Stiller gets extremely honest about his own shortcomings in a new documentary he produced about his parents, the late Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara.
In the forthcoming doc, “Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost,” the “Severance” director speaks to his daughter, 23-year-old Ella, about a project they worked on when she was young ― and why it led to one of his most profound mistakes.
“I cut you out of ‘Secret Life of Walter Mitty,’” Ben Stiller says in conversation with Ella Stiller, referencing a 2013 movie he directed and acted in.
“It’s probably the worst decision I ever made in my life,” the actor admitted, via Entertainment Weekly.
Ella Stiller was much more forgiving than her father and told him that her scene “didn’t make sense in the movie.”
