Ben Stiller Gets Ready For 'Zoolander 2'
In
Comedy, Sequels
Allow me a moment to be a gushing movie fan. I LOVED the original "Zoolander" movie. It was the first time I really appreciated Ben Stiller and was out just before Will Ferrell broke out as the biggest comedy star in the world. The film is also LOADED with incredible and very referable one liners "You should listen to Billy Zane".
"Zoolander" is also one of those rare films that didn't do all that well at the box office, but has grown in popularity over the years and as a result there has been speculation for a while that another Derek Zoolander film could be on the way.
There are now reports that Paramount has put the wheels in motion for a sequel with Stiller on board as well as his "Tropic Thunder" co-writer, Justin Theroux, to direct.
There has been no official word yet on if Owen Wilson would return as Zoolander's nemesis turned best friend Hansel, but it appears Will Ferrell won't be back as there are suggestions that "Superbad" star Jonah Hill will come in as the villain for the project.
QUESTION: What's your favorite line from the original "Zoolander"?
