Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson weren’t required for the follow up to the 2001 classic comedy, Zoolander. Instead they chose to cast Drew, Mal and me in the sequel. The setting? The streets of Sydney. Here are some candid shots taken during filming:

Okay. Maybe not a Zoolander sequel. But Drew and Mal are really, really ridiculously good looking! It’s been a while since the 3 of us have hung out, so it was good to get the band back together. We had a killer night eating, drinking, walking, posing, laughing, praying, driving, encouraging, climbing, rapping, joking and reminiscing.
I wasn’t like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, I was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere’s a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who’s a hero. The music he’s created over the years, I don’t really listen to it, but the fact that he’s making it, I respect that. I care desperately about what I do. Do I know what product I’m selling? No. Do I know what I’m doing today? No. But I’m here, and I’m gonna give it my best shot. – Hanzel (01)
Do you understand that the world does not revolve around you and your do whatever it takes, ruin as many people’s lives, so long as you can make a name for yourself as an investigatory journalist, no matter how many friends you lose or people you leave dead and bloodied along the way, just so long so you can make a name for yourself as an investigatory journalist, no matter how many friends you lose or people you leave dead and bloodied and dying along the way?
Cool story, Hansel

Rufus, Brint, and Meekus were like brothers to me. And when I say brother, I don’t mean, like, an actual brother, but I mean it like the way black people use it. Which is more meaningful I think.
Derek Zoolander: What is this? A center for ants? How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read… if they can’t even fit inside the building?
Mugatu: Derek, this is just a small…
Derek Zoolander: I don’t wanna hear your excuses! The building has to be at least… three times bigger than this!
