Kate Winslet told Tobey Maguire that Tropic Thunder was his 'crowning achievement'.
Tobey Maguire recalls a funny comment Kate Winslet made to him about his performance in Tropic Thunder. Released in 2008, Tropic Thunder stars Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr., Jay Baruchel, and Brandon T. Jackson as a group of high-maintenance actors trying to make a Vietnam War film. Stiller, who wrote and directed the film, stars as Tugg Speedman, whose washed-up acting career relies on the fictional movie-within-a-movie, Tropic Thunder's, success.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY While answering fan questions on Reddit, Tobey Maguire recalls actress Kate Winslet's funny Tropic Thunder comment. When asked by a fan what film of his he wishes he could preserve for prosperity, Maguire responds with Tropic Thunder. He then goes on to explain that after running into Winslet, she told him the film was his "crowning achievement". While not sure if that was a compliment, Maguire took the comment in good spirits.
Why Tropic Thunder Was A Surprise Hit Tropic Thunder was a major success in theaters, surpassing Star Wars: The Clone Wars at the box office, which was released the same weekend. It dethroned The Dark Knight as the top earner, too, which previously held the position for four consecutive weeks prior to Tropic Thunder's release. In addition to amassing a large audience, critics also responded positively to the film, with an above 80% score on the review aggregate website Rotten Tomatoes.
Still, Tropic Thunder's success did not come without backlash. Several controversies surrounded the film's release, including Downey's use of blackface which his character dons as part of his method acting routine. However, over the years, Stiller has responded to the backlash, saying it was self-aware due to the film's satirical nature.
