Barney Burman makeup designer : I had about a dozen people making the silicone prosthetics for his head, neck, chest, and hands. We made him special gloves. I did the sculpting, someone else did the molds, someone else was casting them.
I had six different people punching hairs into the scalp piece, so his entire head was one-at-a-time, hand-punched hairs; his arms were hand-punched one at a time; his chest was hand-punched. Connie Grayson Criswell lead hair-puncher : It was kind of a pain in the butt because we were punching with very curly human hair. Curly hair is very hard to punch because it has a mind of its own. And people kept looking at me to see how my hair grows and what the weight is like and how things sit on me.
At one point I thought they were trying to turn Tom into me. The character was an amalgam of a lot of traits. Aida Caefer body suit construction : I made the fat suits for Tom Cruise.
He was all for the more ridiculous, the better. The suit went from his neck all the way down to the ankles. On top of it is another layer that ties everything together, and when you put it on, it looks like skin. We had to make three [suits]. The character moved around a lot and he was so soaked in sweat that we had rotating suits for him — one in the morning and one after lunch. Stiller: Tom choreographed all his own moves.
I remember watching him do this stuff and thinking this is so frigging funny. Burke: One day we were in the makeup room and Tom was rehearsing his lines and they were so vulgar and crass. I was taken aback and I thought something had happened to him.
It was not his normal thing. Hader: When I was like 5, my dad took me out to these rain towers in northern Tulsa, where I grew up. The star was being considered for the lead role in the movie - Tugg Speedman -as this was how Stiller got the screenplay into Cruise's hands.
As it existed at the time, the movie only had one real villain - the year-old drug king. After reading the script, it was Cruise who, according to producer Stuart Cornfield, came up with the idea of a "greedy pig studio executive who really represents the gross part of Hollywood.
As it turns out, the idea for this character was a total revelation for Ben Stiller. He notes in the article that the idea actually turned out to be the perfect piece that allowed the rest of Tropic Thunder 's dominoes to fall.
His idea to show the studio head actually fixed a problem we had for a long time. We never cut back to the real world for any of the previous drafts. Follow Quartz. These are some of our most ambitious editorial projects.
