Will Ferrell has confirmed he is to appear in 'Zoolander 2'.
The comedian starred as villain Mugatu in the 2001 hit film and has revealed there will be a read-through of the new script in the near future, JoBlo reports.
He said: "We are actually supposed to do a read-through of a sequel script soon. And Mugatu is a part of it."
Details of the much-anticipated sequel are thin on the ground at present, though it has been speculated that Ben Stiller will replace Justin Theroux as director.
There has also been speculation surrounding who else might appear in the flick, with some reports linking model Cara Delevingne with a role.
Indeed, it's even been suggested that she could play the female lead in the sequel.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Ben [Stiller] and producers want a big-name model for the film and they need to be jokers and full of natural comedy.
"They've been closely following Cara and her antics during the past couple of years.
"They are still working out what the exact role will be but it's likely to include a lot of goofing around."

Robert Downey Jr, Hugh Jackman and Samuel L Jackson are set for 'Star Wars Episode VII' cameos.
The superstar trio are rumoured to have landed secret roles in the latest installment of the George Lucas-penned franchise after being invited to the set at the Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, along with 'Paul' actor Nick Frost.
It is thought some of the actors will be forced to appear in the Disney movie in secret to avoid breaching their contract with various other studios.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Everyone is clamouring for a set visit and cameo.
"Sam, Robert and Hugh have all been invited, as well as Nick Frost. Some are hiding their faces just for fun but others have to for contractual reasons.
"If they're tied to other studios, they're technically not allowed to appear in a Disney film."
While, 'Iron Man' star Robert, 49, and 'X-Men' actor Hugh, 45, have never appeared in the series, Samuel, 65, previously starred in the prequel trilogy as jedi master Mace Windu from 1999 to 2005.
The news follows on from reports that James Bond actor Daniel Craig has secured a mystery role in the science fiction saga after begging director JJ Abrams for the small part due to his love for the series.
An insider said: "Daniel asked for some sort of secret cameo role - and was happy to have his name left off the posters.
"Fans will love trying to work out which covered up character is him."
Meanwhile, further rumours of a franchise spin-off starring jedi master Obi-Wan Kenobi - who has been played by Alec Guinnes and Ewan McGreggor - have started to surface.
Fan site Making Star Wars said: "For the spin-off movies they were initially going to stay away from any Jedi or Sith characters.
"But I'm hearing now that because of the popularity of Obi-Wan that an art team is now working with a writer on concepts for an Obi-Wan movie."

Liam Neeson says action movie roles are now for older actors too.
The 'A Walk Among the Tombstones' star has become a fixture in adrenaline-fuelled blockbusters like 'Taken', and while he think it isn't something for "much younger men" anymore, he's still waiting on his call for 'The Expendables".
He told The Independent newspaper: "Action heroes used to be for much younger men, but now I get all these scripts where it's, 'Scratch 35, and now it's 60!' ... No, ['The Expendables'] haven't asked me.
"I don't know if that's a good or bad thing."
As the 62-year-old actor grows older, he has noticed changes in society and the way they feel about certain things - and he insisted the current generation would rather replace an older item instead of repairing it.
He added: "They just don't fix things anymore. It gives me cause for concern.
"Where I live in New York, any time a bar closes down, suddenly there's a Revlon make-up shop. There must be about 15 of them along Columbus Avenue.
"In the middle of it all there's a little cobbler who operates from a tiny little space and I find myself sometimes breaking shoes in order to just bring them to him; just to keep it alive."

Filming for the new James Bond film is to begin in December.

It's also been confirmed that Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris and Rory Kinnear are returning.

The film's bosses said "the villain's henchman in 'Bond 24' is planned to be a classic physically imposing character who has several altercations with Bond throughout the mission".

The 'Skyfall' star, who is a big fan of the science fiction saga, has filmed a mystery role in the seventh instalment of the franchise, according to The Sun on Sunday.

Dakota Fanning hated being called "precocious" when she was a child actress.
The 20-year-old starlet has admitted that she really disliked being labelled by film critics when she growing up in the spotlight.
Dakota - who has starred in over 35 movies and TV shows since she was seven years old -revealed she has always been mature and hated being accused of acting older than her years.
She explained: "I have this whole thing with that word 'precocious'. I guess it's not a negative, but when I was younger, especially, I was labelled that, and I was just being who I was! Do you know what I mean? Like, 'Oh you're so mature,' when I'm just being normal."
The 'Night Moves' actress also revealed that she won't be getting a Twitter account because she wants to keep her life a "mystery".
The 20-year-old starlet added to Lucky magazine: "It's a hole I really don't want to dive into. I don't want to know all these things about people. It's like the mystery of life has been removed!"

Jamie Dornan insists that 'Fifty Shades of Grey' won't be "grotesque".
The handsome actor insists the latest film - which is based on the erotic trilogy by author, E.L. James - will not be too dirty for audiences to enjoy, but admits it will "break a few boundaries".
He explained: "You've got to make something a large amount of people can go and see. It's not going to be grotesque.
"I mean, in some ways, it'll break a few boundaries. But at the same time, they want to put bums on seats. They can't alienate an audience. You know it has to be watchable. It can't be hardcore. I wouldn't have signed up for it if it was."
The 32-year-old star also admitted he wasn't worried about filming the explicit scenes with his co-star Dakota Johnson.
Jamie added to GQ magazine: "I'm not really fearful of that stuff. It's just work. It's strange work, sure, but it's still work. I just get on with it."
He even revealed that his father had encouraged him to take on the role of Christian Grey, as he added: "[Dad] was all for it. I don't come from a cagey family. We're fairly liberal."

Susan Sarandon says watching her daughter give birth to her granddaughter made her more pride than anything she has achieved in her acting career.
The 67-year-old star helped Eva Amurri Martino, who is married to NBC sports analyst Kyle Martino, deliver her first child, Marlowe, into the world at her home in Los Angeles last month, and admits the experience was overwhelming.
The 'Tammy' actress said: "I have loved working, playing and travelling with my daughter - but nothing prepared me for watching her birth Marlowe. She was a warrior, and I'm so proud to be her mother and to be a part of that beautiful new child."
Eva revealed her famous mother hopped on a plane to LA from New York City, as soon as she told her she thought she was going into labour 11 days early.
She said: "I let her know that I wasn't sure if this was it, but I just had a feeling. She hopped on a plane and got there as soon as possible."
The 29-year-old actress is still adjusting to the new addition to her family.
She told PEOPLE magazine: "Motherhood is such a learning curve. Each day is a new day, and it takes a while to get used to it."
But she added: "I would do anything for her. I really wanted my life to be about something bigger than just us, and now it is."

James Franco wants to direct another two films based on William Faulkner's novels.
The 36-year-old actor-and-director has admitted that he would love to adapt another two novels by the modernist author, after starring in 'The Sound and the Fury' which is based on the 1929 book by the American writer.
Talking to The Guardian newspaper, James shared: "There's two more Faulkners we want to do: 'The Hamlet' and 'The Bear'. 'The Bear' would be difficult, just because you need a trained bear, but nowadays you could probably do a CGI or motion capture, like in 'Planet of the Apes'."
When asked why he feels such a connection to the author, who died in 1962, the handsome actor replied: "He's the granddaddy of southern writers. He's our high modernist writer. He goes hand in hand with James Joyce and Virginia Woolf and [Marcel] Proust. He's like our version of all of that.
"I think his best books are 'As I Lay Dying' and 'The Sound and the Fury', the two books that I've adapted. The world within the film takes place in the 1920s or earlier, but his writing is so complex and unusual that it allows me to use very contemporary film techniques and editing styles."
James then added that William's modernist writing style does make it more complicated for him as a director, but was quick to point out that he doesn't dislike this aspect of adapting the novels.
He said: "That's one of the reasons that I do it. It pushes me as a filmmaker to find solutions, and filmic techniques that I normally wouldn't use. I have to think, 'How do you get stream of consciousness?' And, 'How are we going to tell this non-linear story?' "
