"That's why I'm here, because it's time for change and it seems like it's happening," he added.

When Stiller was asked if Kamala Harris was capable of keeping up her momentum after the Democratic National Convention (DNC) which was held from August 19 to 22, the actor responded, "For sure."

He noted that the election is "going to be close but everyone's motivated to work and make it happen."

"And she and Tim Walz are just incredible candidates," the actor added.

Hollywood rallies behind Kamala Harris

Ben Stiller is among a growing group of Hollywood celebrities, including George Clooney, who have thrown their support behind Kamala Harris as President Joe Biden's successor.

George Clooney has been vocal about his belief in Harris, previously urging Biden to withdraw his candidacy from the 2024 election race in the July op-ed in The New York Times and later endorsing Harris' presidential bid.

In a statement to CNN's Jake Tapper, Clooney said, "President Biden has shown what true leadership is. He’s saving democracy once again. We’re all so excited to do whatever we can to support Vice President Harris in her historic quest."

"Well he really is a good actor," an individual commented, and another penned, "Nobody tell Ben Stiller she’s currently the Vice President."
