Usually when I hear about possible sequels to nearly-10-year-old movies, I think bleh. But Ben Stiller kicking around ideas for a sequel to Zoolander? Uh, the opposite of bleh!
Zoolander is one of those movies that I can watch over and over and over, one that I find myself referencing with surprising frequency — lih-trally just this weekend, I needed a "merman" clue in a game of $25,000 Pyramid. Is it the greatest comedy of all time? Eh, probably not. But will I ever get tired of saying "hot bread, Zeke!" when I take toast out of the toaster? Never. Please, Ben Stiller, hear my cry for more Zoolander.
Would you dust off your Blue Steel for another go-round?

I loved “Zoolander”, but I cannot picture a sequel. It should be left alone.
I, too, wanna open a school for Kids That Don’t Read Good. I say yes!!!
I would be up for another freak gasoline fight! I think after the awesomeness that was Tropic Thunder I’d just like to see Ben Stiller direct more.
I love this movie. And totally use both the merman bit, and the black lung bit, on a regular basis. I’ve even gone through two copies of the dvd (destroyed both copies from so many viewings). However, I’m not sure how I feel about a sequel. Without a doubt, I’d see it, but…
“Zoolander 2! Because NO ONE demanded it!”
The only thing that could be better would be an ORANGE MOCHA FRAPPUCHINO!
Best news ever. I constantly yell “Orange Mocha Frappacino” when I hear Wham! and talk about how I can’t turn left. Plus, every photo I take is Blue Steel.
Ben, bring it!
Zoolander is one of my favorite comedies of all time, and so underrated, I think because it had the misfortune of coming out just after 9/11. My favorite Will Ferrell role. MerMAN! Moisture is the essence of wetness. I’m getting the black lung, pop! Orange mocha frappucinos! Freak gasoline fight accident. I’m a finger jockey. D-a-i-y-e spa. What is this, a center for ANTS? It’s going to need to be at least three times bigger than this! Obey my dog! Derelicte. Kill the Malaysian Prime Minister aaaahhhhhh!
But it might be too late for a sequel.
Yes Yes Yes! Best idea I’ve heard in a long time.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!
I don’t understand why so many people think Stiller and his movies = pure comedy gold. Tropic Thunder was funny, but mostly due to everyone elses efforts.
if they bring hanzel(he’s so hot right now) and billy zane then i see the sequel
Everytime I hear Wham, I instantly want to go to a gas station with my friends and have a gas fight with them. That’s not weird,right?
Anyway, I love Zoolander and hope and pray for a sequel
Zoolander is one of those terrific and rare comedies that only LOOKS dumb, and only gets better on repeat viewings . . . it’s incredibly sly, damn funny, and relentlessly quotable. To anyone who says no sequel, I say “put a cork in it, Zane!”
bleh
I’ve never understood the love for this movie. I usually like dumb comedies, but this one didn’t work for me. So I’ll pass on a sequel.
Like Josh, I will pass on this one. The original rates as one of my least favorite movies. I would rather see “Along Came Polly Again” than “Zoolander 2: Return to Stupidity.”
I also was not an ambi-turner, but seeing Zoolander made me feel better about my runway walking problems. I would love to see a Zoolander sequel.
Yes….I’m not usually one for sequels, but this one feels right. They need all the major players back though; if they don’t get Owen and Will they can Derelicte my b*lls, Cap-i-tan.
That is AWESOME. If only I were an ambi-turner…
Dude… Ben Stiller is like, 43! He’s too old.
I loved Zoolander for the breakdance fighting alone.
Its a walk off…I would listen to your friend Billy Zane…He’s a cool dude.
My FAV line from that movie, I laugh out loud every time I see it on TV…upon seeing his son’s commercial for “Merman,” Zoolander’s papa (John Voit) says, with perfect deadpan mortification: “You’re dead to me. You’re more dead to me than your dead mother.” (Hey, my mom passe on and I still think it’s funny!)
