In 1958, Sellers appeared in George Pal's big-budget musical Tom Thumb, followed by the satiric comedy I'm All Right, Jack, which earned him Best Actor honors from the British Film Academy. In the early '60s, he starred as the immortal Dr. Strangelove in Stanley Kubrick's titular black comedy and as the legendary, bumbling Inspector Clouseau in A Shot in the Dark (which augured many Pink Panther sequels).
