Derek Zoolander is back with bud Hansel McDonald in a new full-length trailer for Zoolander 2, the sequel to the original 2001 comedy film starring Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson. Le Tigre, Magnum, and Blue Steel are also along for the ride, as well as a few other new and familiar faces.

Hansel and Derek are both washed up—specifically "lame and "old"—and out of the game, seemingly not by choice. The fashion world's moved on to more eclectic and eccentric tastes such as All, an androgynous model played by what is either Benedict Cumberbatch or a very convincing Benedict Cumberbatch look-alike. But the boys aren't down and out for long.

Perhaps the most important addition this time around is Penelope Cruz as an Interpol agent investigating a series of "beautiful people" deaths somehow associated with Zoolander via his signature look, Blue Steel. See, they give the old Blue Steel pose in their very last social media update before dying. How this works exactly isn't clear, but it'll probably somehow make sense once the actual movie's out.

This includes a cameo by Justin Bieber doing some sweet parkour moves before getting wasted by ... whatever evil organization is hunting down the previously mentioned beautiful people. One can only hope to see other beautiful people doing similarly ridiculous stuff, and it's almost inevitable that there will be some goofy use of the current batch of so-called "hoverboards" which don't actually hover.

Also returning? Will Ferrell as Jacobim Mugatu, the manipulating fashion designer, fresh out of jail and clearly up to no good. That's about all we know right now beyond the fact that he still loves to dump terrible lattes on his assistant. Which, really, is all I personally want out of a new Zoolander movie: Will Ferrell tossing lattes at people.

Zoolander 2, starring Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Penelope Cruz, Christine Taylor, Kristen Wiig and Will Ferrell, is scheduled to release in theaters on Feb. 12, 2016.
