Ben Stiller, renowned for his comedic roles in Hollywood, has built a legacy that extends beyond the screen. Since becoming a father in 2002, he and his wife Christine Taylor have nurtured their children’s talents. Their daughter Ella Olivia, born in 2002, and son Quinlin Dempsey, born in 2005, have both shown interest in following their parents' footsteps into the entertainment industry. Both have pursued education in prestigious institutions and have already made appearances in various productions. Ben expresses immense pride and support for his children's aspirations, hoping to collaborate with them in future projects.

The Aspiring Actress: Ella Olivia Stiller

Ella Olivia, now 22, has embraced her passion for acting from an early age. Born in Los Angeles, she moved with her family to New York City around the age of eight. Following in her father's footsteps, Ella attended the Calhoun School and later enrolled at Juilliard, one of the most prestigious performing arts conservatories. Her dedication to the craft is evident through her involvement in several film projects and brief appearances in her father’s movies.

Ella's journey as an actress began with her love for storytelling and performance. At just eight years old, she moved to New York City, where she continued her education at the Calhoun School. Her decision to attend Juilliard solidified her commitment to the arts. In 2019, during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Ben shared how Ella’s passion for acting mirrored his own youthful ambitions. She has since appeared in films like Hubie Halloween and short films such as Friday and Fork, Knife & Chainsaw. Ella’s talent and determination have earned her recognition and set her on a promising path in the entertainment world.

The Up-and-Coming Actor: Quinlin Dempsey Stiller

Quinlin Dempsey, or Quin as he prefers to be called, is 19 and has also taken steps toward a career in acting. Like his sister, he was born in Los Angeles but moved to New York City during his childhood. Quin has had minor roles in some of his father’s films and is currently pursuing a BFA in acting at The New School’s School of Drama. His educational journey reflects his growing interest in the performing arts.

Quin’s story begins in Los Angeles, where he spent his early years before relocating to New York City. He attended the same school as his sister, laying the foundation for his artistic pursuits. Although he hasn’t yet achieved major breakthroughs, Quin’s involvement in uncredited roles in his father’s films hints at his potential. According to his LinkedIn profile, Quin started his first year at The New School’s School of Drama in the fall of 2024, aiming to earn a BFA in acting. Ben has expressed his enthusiasm about working with both of his children, noting their growing skills and independence. “They’re both really good, so it’d be fun to work with them,” he said, adding that he looks forward to collaborating with them on future projects.
