Zoolander 2 - February 12, 2016 - Blu-ray Forum

In news that just won't seem to go away, Stiller is talking Zoolander sequel quite a bit these days...

Quote:

A lot of people like to dismiss Ben Stiller's classic comedy Zoolander, but I think it's one of the actor's funniest movies. It's certainly the most reminiscent of his early 90's sketch comedy show. And it's definitely got the greatest scene filmed at a gas station ever (and there've been a lot of great gas station scenes throughout cinema). So me and about three other fans are looking forward to Zoolander 2, which Stiller has been teasing us with for many, many years (the original came out in 2001). Finally, in an interview with ScreenRush, he revealed some (un)likely plot details on the sequel, which still sounds a long way off.

Seemingly offering up ideas from the top of his head, he said the sequel would be set ten years later, with a graying and bearded Derek Zoolander coping with the fact that he's no longer a professional model. Maybe he'll be running a modeling school, Stiller added with uncertainty (in addition to the The Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good and Wanna Learn to do Other Stuff Good Too, I hope). The only other characters he said would return were his son, Derek Jr., who'd now be about 10 or 11, and Hansel, the rival/fellow model played in the original by Owen Wilson. Sound like a sequel you'd want to see?

this movie was too funny to try a sequel. but come on..like he's not going to try, and like i'm not going to see it

Suntory_Times · 05-20-2009, 05:44 AM

The first one was a flop so i'll doubt we shall see a sequal.

They say it's got quite the cult following.

This is the funniest Ben Stiller movie ever, and I hate Ben Stiller.

Seriously, I loved this movie. Id like to see another.

You have a strange definition of 'flop'

Because your definition of flop means that it actually made money.

Definition of a flop - Less than 100 billion dollars domestic

- Less than 100 Trillion dollars world wide

Cannot wait for No 2. Very funny film. And I do not like Stiller and Wilson in that many films.

Best part to me was the little scale model scene.

Lepidopterous · 05-20-2009, 07:51 AM

Whoa whoa. This is huge for me. My second favorite comedy of all time. I remember Stiller saying he wouldn't do a sequel since the creator of the Zoolander character died.

Ahh, I was under the impression that its porduction budget was around $60 million (in whihc case it would likely be a flop). My mistake.

(don't get me wrong I enjoyed the film and saw it in cinemas, so i'm not trying to trash the film by saying no one saw it and therfore its bad etc).

Quad · 05-20-2009, 11:16 AM

I also thought it was very funny but I don't want to see a sequel. Would
rather see him take on a new project.

How are the children supposed to learn if they can't fit inside the building?

I actually thought it was quite a funny movie. The 'walk off' scene was hilarious. I wouldn't mind seeing a second one.

Porkchop Express · 05-20-2009, 12:37 PM

This has always been my favorite Stiller comedy.

I hope they broaden Natalie Portman's cameo to a full on STALKER angle!!!

Modeling, to me, isn't just about being good-looking or having a lot of fun and being really, really good looking...
