Watch Will Ferrell’s Mugatu ‘Relax’ in ‘Zoolander 2’ Trailer
The latest trailer for Zoolander 2 shows a bigger glimpse at the antics of Will Ferrell’s villainous fashion designer Mugatu. The highly anticipated sequel to the 2001 comedy classic will be released on February 12th.
The trailer opens with the return of Justin Theroux’s menacing Evil DJ spinning a remix of “Relax,” the song that haunted Ben Stiller’s dimwitted Derek Zoolander in the original film. Zoolander and Owen Wilson’s Hansel are then seen traveling the world as models and spies as they attempt to stop whoever is killing the world’s biggest celebrities, like Justin Bieber.
In one scene from the trailer, A$AP Rocky and Skrillex appear in cameo roles at a party where Rocky raps a song about the film’s protagonists. “Hansel and Derek/I’m handsome, you jealous/I can tell it from facial expressions,” Rocky recites in his brief appearance.
Later, Mugatu has been set free from prison and finds it as easy as ever to trick Zoolander. He also has an awkward reunion with his love Alexanya, played by Kristen Wiig, as they begin screaming at each other while attempting to kiss through her complex headpiece.
Demi Lovato, Ariana Grande, Joe Jonas and Willie Nelson are set to make cameos in the film. Fred Armisen, Penelope Cruz and Saturday Night Live‘s Kyle Mooney are also set to appear.
