Ben Stiller reveals Zoolander 2 is already in production
"We're filming the Zoolander 2 sequel at the moment. Derek's going to be back bigger and better than before - no catwalk is safe!"
Ben Stiller also confirmed that Owen Wilson will reprise his role of Hansel from the original 2001 comedy Zoolander, and talked a bit more about the plot of Zoolander 2.
"It's ten years later and most of it is set in Europe. I don't want to give away too much, but it's basically Derek and Hansel ten years later."
We reported back in November that Zoolander 2 would likely shoot in 2011, although this is the first we're hearing that production has actually started. It isn't clear where the sequel is currently filming. Justin Theroux is directing from a script he co-wrote with Ben Stiller.
It isn't known what the release plans are for Zoolander 2 at this time.
Zoolander 2 is in development and stars Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Will Ferrell. The film is directed by Justin Theroux.

@narrator your absolutly right. I think Zoolander is a very polarizing film but i get what they were trying to do...and it had its moments but as far as Stiller goes i found Dodgeball much better than Zoolander and it is in that catagory of irreverent comedies. In fact his performance seemed like an extension of his "Heavyweights" character which was also hillarious.
However i am just nbot feeling this sequel but only time will tell. I hate to say this but it just seems like a quick cash in. Having said that i am still crossing my fingers that the satire isnt quite as over the top. It seems like the things i hated about that movie are what others loved bout it.

I absolutely hated the first Zoolander. It wasn't funny at all. I am not looking forward to a sequel.

Lol. People either love or hate the previous film. I'm in the minor "like it" category.

Awesome! I had no idea this movie was even happening. Up until now, I thought it was all wishful thinking.
