It took 15 years before Ben Stiller reunites with Owen Wilson in the comedy sequel "Zoolander 2" and many people are excited to see the two models go on a walk-off.
However, the 46-year-old actor seems to find it weird that they are actually doing a second installment to the film because it wasn't really a blockbuster movie.
"The first one didn't do that great, so it's a little odd to be doing a sequel," Wilson confessed to The Daily Beast. "It wasn't a huge box office to begin with but I guess over the years some people really embraced it."
According to IMDb, the estimated budget of "Zoolander" is 28 million and it earned approximately 15 million in the USA during its opening weekend.
Despite the poor box office results, the 2001 comedy gained many cult followers and they are all excited to see Derek Zoolander's trademark "Blue Steel" pose. Ben Stiller plays the lead character while Owen Wilson stars as the laid back model named Hansel.
The actor shared his experience in Rome where they were filming the sequel.
"I was walking around in Italy, and there are so many people that want you to do Blue Steel," Wilson recalled. "I'm like, 'Actually it's Ben that does Blue Steel, it's not Hansel' - but they don't seem to accept that. So I have to do some version of it, and they'll correct me and do their version. I think everybody has a Blue Steel."
"You never know how it's going to turn out," the actor added. "But I think it's going to be really funny." Apart from a Hansel version of Blue Steel pose, fans can also Owen to be more on the heavy side. During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, the star of "No Escape" revealed that he had a hard time resisting the food in Italy.
"It was a little bit of a challenge because Italian food, it's not exactly gluten free," Wilson admitted as reported by Belfast Telegraph.
"I did struggle with that early on and Ben was giving me notes about, you know, you're playing a supermodel. But then I decided that maybe I could play this guy as kind of doughy, like a doughy supermodel."
