When Ben Stiller approached Tom Cruise for a small role in Tropic Thunder (2008), Cruise agreed but insisted on fat hairy arms, giant prosthetic hands, and a dance sequence. The cameo became Les Grossman, one of his wildest performances.

Tropic Thunder has one of the best cast ensembles for a movie made in the last 25 years.

I still remember when I found out Lex Grossman was Tom Cruise. Amazing movie.

It's weird how most of us didn't recognize him because it looks so obvious to me now, but the audience gasped when his name came up in the credits.

Genius casting. Proof of TCs versatility as an actor

Tom Cruise needs to make a spin off movie where he is the lead and do Les Grossman for 2+ hours

Id donate a lung for Ari Gold vs. Less Grossman

I remember watching this was like, where I have seen this guy, his voice sound familiar, and at the credit while dancing Tom Cruise,

I didn’t realize it was Tom Cruise until the credits.

Perfect comedy. Love this movie.

This performance was perfection.

So fucking great!! 🤣🤣🤣 And we will weep for him in the press! Lmaoooo

he was funny.

Toms best work imo 😂

👍👍

That scene may possibly be as good as the rest of the movie put together, and it was a great movie 🤣

One of the best characters of all time!

👀🔥😎

The most overrated movie scene of all time. I can't fathom people laughing at this.

Basta d stunts imposibles, q Tom vuelva a esto ya!

Even bald spot Tom Cruise is s*xy AF 🤤🤤🤤😫😫😫

I never watched Tropic Thunder, but the video has me rethinking it
