‘Zoolander No. 2’ TV Spots: Sexy Fighting, Gross Kissing And A New Cologne

One of mymost anticipated movies of 2016isZoolander No. 2, the sequel to the fashion comedy spawned from a character that first appeared on the VH1 Fashion Awards. The first film is a favorite comedy of mine for being so relentlessly dumb and just plain goofy, with two of the best comedic performances thatBen StillerandWill Ferrellhave ever given. And now we get another whiff of the sequel with some new TV spots, including one that perfectly parodies the always stupid fragrance ads on TV all the time.

Here’s the cologne ad TV spot forZoolander No. 2from Universal Pictures:

As you can see, there’s sexy fighting betweenPenelope Cruzand some unknown woman. Could it beMilla Jovovichback as KatinkaIngabogovinanana? That would be fantastic, but I’m not sure if her schedule and pregnancy allowed her to fit the sequel it. We can always hope though.

And then there’s the gross kissing between Will Ferrell as Mugatu andKristen Wiig’s new character Alexanya Atoz, seeming to indicate that the two have a romantic history as fashion super-villains.

But the real payoff here is Derek Zoolander as a centaur for the cologne ad side of the TV spot. I don’t know who finally came up with the final title for theZoolandersequel, but it’s simple and inspired.
