‘Zoolander’ star Stiller to get Chaplin award from BAFTA
Veteran producer Nigel Lythgoe called Stiller “a master of comedy who, just like the legendary filmmaker for whom this award is named, embodies the remarkable multihyphenate talents of actor, writer, director and producer.’’ Lythgoe serves as chairman of BAFTA Los Angeles.
Stiller will receive the honor at the Brittania Awards on Nov. 30, when actress Helena Bonham Carter and animator John Lasseter are also being recognized.
The 45-year-old Stiller will next be seen opposite Eddie Murphy in “Tower Heist.’’
