The Zoolander sequel has been in the works for years, with various script drafts passing through. Justin Theroux, who had been attached to direct before his work on HBO drama The Leftovers got in the way, has written the most recent draft on the script, which Stiller is planning to direct.
Not much is known about the film’s plot yet, save that it apparently is still set ten years after the events of the original, finds Stiller’s Zoolander and Owen Wilson’s Hansel rejected by the fashion industry after they age out of the sweet spot for male models, leaving them struggling to once again make their names. Deadline reports that there are no deals in place for Wilson or Will Ferrell – who played preening villain Mugatu – to return yet, but we’d bet they’ll both show up to play. With Cruz aboard, the film should finally show some real momentum.
Cruz, last seen in The Counselor, has worked on Julio Medem’s Ma Ma, and will crop up in Sacha Baron Cohen’s new comedy, Grimsby, which is out here on July 24.
