Steve Coogan - Coogan Credits Stillers Obsession With His Hollywood Break
British funnyman STEVE COOGAN owes his blossoming Hollywood career to BEN STILLER's obsession with one of his comedy creations.
Coogan claims Stiller hunted him down and positive him to star in 2006 plastic film Night at the Museum - after getting strung-out on the Brit's case Alan Partridge, a failed TV presenter.
The 42-year-old too appears in Stiller's latest movie Tropic Thunder.
Coogan explains his big fall apart, "He tracked me depressed in the U.K. and said he wanted to work with me. He'd become somewhat obsessed with Alan Partridge for a period, which in America is quite odd."
