10 More Supporting Actors Who Totally Stole The Movie

Robert Downy Jr. notably managed to score himself a Best Supporting Actor nod at the Academy Awards for his side-splitting work as Kirk Lazarus in 2008's action comedy satire Tropic Thunder. But in truth, even his routine scene-stealing ultimately ended up being over-shadowed by the unexpected gift that was one Les Grossman.

Donning a bald cup, fat suit, and an energy unlike anything we'd ever seen from the A-list sensation before, many had next to no idea Tom Cruise had been erupting on their screens throughout the chaotic flick until the end credits strutted onto the scene.

Whether he was sending folks home with a grin on their mugs via his hip thrusting moves or viciously belittling all who unfortunately sat on the other end of a video or voice call, Cruise's piercing barbs and joyous explosions consistently dragged all of the attention away from the rest of his star-studded castmates.

It also won't come as too much of a surprise to hear that Cruise has been "fixated" on returning to this magnificently outrageous role in the years since his Tropic Thunder debut. So, expect more scenes and movies to be entirely stolen by this Diet Coke-sipping ball of fury sooner rather than later.
