In Canada and the United States, his movies have made more than $2.6 billion, with an average of $79 million per feature. He has garnered several prizes and distinctions during his career, including an Emmy Award, multiple MTV Movie Awards, a Britannia Award, and a Teen Choice Award.

Stiller has been dubbed the “acknowledged leader” of the Frat Pack, a core group of performers who have appeared in several films together. Jack Black, Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Luke Wilson, and Steve Carell are among the cast members. Because of his numerous cameos and his frequent employment of the other members in parts in movies that he produces and directs, Stiller has been dubbed the group’s leader. He’s made the most appearances with Owen Wilson.

Stiller has indeed been engaged in 20 of the 35 core movies which are termed Frat Pack flicks in some form.

Stiller seems to be the only member of the Brat Pack who has featured in a film (Fresh Horses). He denies being a member of the “Frat Pack,” stating in a 2008 interview that the term was “totally manufactured.”
