'Zoolander 2' Trailer: Ben Stiller Returns to Model Form in New Teaser (Video)

Not since 2001 — or last week — has the modeling world seen such phenomenal stupidity. Derek Zoolander, the world’s dumbest model, returns in the new teaser trailer for “Zoolander 2,” starring Ben Stiller.

Opening with a Big Bang and traveling through space and time to land in Zoolander’s face, Paramount’s new clip ponder’s life’s great mysteries, including the snapping of brain synapses that must occur for someone to be so dense.

The film reunites stars Stiller and Owen Wilson from the 2001 cult hit comedy, “Zoolander,” which follows male model and imbecile Zoolander as he attempts to foil the assassination of the prime minister of Malaysia.

“Zoolander 2,” directed by Stiller and written by Justin Theroux, is scheduled to hit theaters on February 12, 2016.
