The fashion and entertainment worlds were abuzz in March when Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson crashed Paris Fashion Week as Derek Zoolander and Hansel, their characters from the 2001 comedy classic Zoolander. The stunt came about as a way of announcing the release date for Zoolander 2, the long-awaited sequel. Now, with the movie shooting, we also know a few cast members who will be in the follow-up, including some original stars from the beloved, quotable movie. New cast members have been steadily joining as well, including the most recent addition, Justin Bieber! Take a look at the full cast (so far) here.
