10 Actors Who Were Directed By Their Husbands
6. Christine Taylor W/ Ben Stiller - Zoolander
Christine Taylor and Ben Stiller met while working on a TV project that never came to fruition. They got married in 2000 and almost immediately, Stiller had a part ready for her in his movie Zoolander.
The couple mostly kept to their own career projects, but Taylor did cameo in 2008's Tropic Thunder. She played herself acting opposite of Stiller's "Simple Jack" character. She then reprised her role in the 2016 sequel Zoolander 2... but the less said on that, the better.
The couple did famously play opposite each other in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, though Stiller did not direct that one. Since he's notorious for his self-depreciating style of humor, it's only fitting that Taylor usually plays characters that insult and poke fun at him.
Although they split in 2017, it appears they still have a good working relationship as Stiller listed as a producer on her next film Dinner With Friends set to release later this year.
