Ben Stiller yelled ‘Cut!’ while filming Stephen Spielberg film: ‘I screwed up my line’

Ben Stiller dropped by Late Night With Seth Meyers, Thursday, where he shared an embarrassing moment that occurred on the set of the 1987 film Empire of the Sun. “It was really exciting ’cause I was a huge Spielberg fan,” Stiller recalled. “And he’d come to see a play I was in, and he basically cast me in the movie.” It was one of Stiller’s first movie roles and he only had one line, so he wanted it to be perfect. “After like three or four minutes of this shot, I say my line,” Stiller said. “I’m supposed to say, “Hey, kid, would you like a Hershey bar?’ And I screwed it up, and I said, ‘Hey, kid, would you like a chocolate bar?’ And then I went, ‘Oh, damn. I’m sorry. Cut.’ And then silence.” Unfortunately, director Stephen Spielberg was not a fan of someone else calling “cut” on his set. “I just hear, from out where the monitors are, ‘What?’ [I said] ‘I screwed up my line.’ And then I hear Steven Spielberg say, ‘You never yell cut!’” While the moment was humiliating, Stiller went on to meet the parents several times and even spent a few nights in museums. “And of course, my hero, my idol, I’m realizing I just did the most embarrassing thing ever,” Stiller said. “So it worked out fine.”
