We didn't know what the reception was going to be when we walked out on the runway, but it felt like we were in a rock band. People started cheering. It was a nice way to begin Zoolander 2, with that kind of reception.

More quotes by Owen Wilson
What's funny is that there's a lot of great Australian actors in American movies but you don't often hear them do their Australian, original accent.
Owen Wilson
You can think of Hollywood as high school. TV actors are freshmen, comedy actors are maybe juniors, and dramatic actors - they're the cool seniors.
Owen Wilson
I think for Wes [Anderson] and me, the most important thing was James L. Brooks producing our first movie and giving us a chance to come to Hollywood, because without him, we might never have gotten the chance.
Owen Wilson
It was nice that you guys have such a good sense of humor, because some people don't have the ability to laugh at something.
Owen Wilson
You know how they say we only use 10 percent of our brains? I think we only use 10 percent of our hearts.
Owen Wilson
Maybe because I began as a writer, I have a good ear for dialogue, and maybe being an English major - and that I also read a lot as a kid - if I hear somebody say something that I think's funny, or I find a situation or story, I'll try to work that into the movie.
Owen Wilson
Hansel is certainly about comfort, while still sort of having a peacock principle of wanting to attract attention.
Owen Wilson
Australian cattle dogs, are not like Labradors, where they just like to just sit around by the fire and get petted. They're working dogs, so they have a lot of energy, and they can drive you crazy.
Owen Wilson
We worked together with Wes Anderson writing a couple more movies together: Rushmore [1998] and Tenenbaums.
Owen Wilson
I saw Ben Stiller's movie Walter Mitty [2013] it's very beautiful. You look at some of the movies John Ford did with John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart, and then look at Remington and Ansel Adams, and I think you see a connection, certainly in the imagery of the West.
Owen Wilson
If a movie goes south, it might not capsize me the way it used to. But I still have a terrible fear of failure. I'm a huge worrier.
Owen Wilson
The way Woody Allen directs, there isn't a lot of direction. He kind of might give a few gentle suggestions, but he really says right from the first day, Just make it sound natural, and if you don't like something, put it in your own words. And [Woody Allen] gives you a lot of freedom and just very polite.
Owen Wilson
Acting is more fun than writing. Writing is harder, more like having a term paper.
Owen Wilson
Maybe that's why there's an insecurity sometimes in acting, because it's not like there's a correlation between hard work and how people receive you.
Owen Wilson
True love is your souls recognition of its counterpoint in another.
Owen Wilson
The Australian accent just a very lovely accent and it doesn't have the pretention maybe of an English accent, but yet seems a little bit more exotic than an American.
Owen Wilson
It's not enough just to be real you have to try to make it interesting or entertaining.
Owen Wilson
I guess that's the thing about Rome: It never changes.
Owen Wilson
It isn't so much that I choose the roles - I mean, I guess there's a little bit of a selection process - but it's more just what people offer you.
Owen Wilson
You know you're in love when you wear condoms while having sex with other women.
