Will Ferrell says Zoolander 2 script read is happening soon

A month ago, we heard that things might be heating up again with ZOOLANDER 2. There’s a script that’s done and it’s up to the studio now to see if they think this thing will make any money, I suppose. However, it looks like this is one step closer to a reality as Will Ferrell recently made mention of a read-through that should be happening in the near future.

This is what Mr. Ferrell had to say:

We are actually supposed to do a read-through of a sequel script soon, and Mugatu is a part of it.

ZOOLANDER was one of the comedies that grew on me. On a first watch, it is ridiculously stupid. It’s ridiculously stupid every watch after, but the humor manages to stay fresh and there are one-liners o’ plenty. With Will Ferrell‘s involvement, this is just one more reason to return to the world of Hansel, Gretel and Mugatu.

Will Ferrell can be seen next in Etan Cohen‘s (writer of TROPIC THUNDER and IDIOCRACY) GET HARD, which will be released on March 27, 2015.

Mutelander, for those who haven’t had the pleasure.
