Prepare yourselves. It's a walk-off.

The eccentric duo from the 2001 comedy Zoolander made a surprise cameo at Paris Fashion Week on Tuesday during the Valentino runway show. It seems Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson still have their classic "blue steel" stares, upstaging the other models as only Derek and Hansel could.

The hilarious stunt was Stiller and Wilson's way of confirming that the film's original stars have signed on for the Zoolander sequel. Paramount confirmed Zoolander 2 will hit theaters on Feb. 12, 2016. (Rumors have been circulating since 2010.)

Reps from Valentino report that, "Derek wears a custom Night Butterflies brocade suit with hand-embroidered overcoat and black Creeper shoes. Hansel wears a Silk Continent print Pajama suit with Double Cashmere overcoat and Open sneakers."

The models also got a photo-op with fashion icon Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief at Vogue.

And it seems Derek has fully embraced the 2015 selfie lifestyle (even though it was probably staged).
