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.

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
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
It's not enough just to be real you have to try to make it interesting or entertaining.
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
The first thing I remember is Alexander Calder - our school took us on a field trip to go see the Calder mobiles, and that always stuck in my memory.
Owen Wilson
That's the thing about friendship, it's a lot rarer than love, because there is nothing in it for any body.
Owen Wilson
You can't get too attached to any one shampoo. And conditioner, also.

James L.Brooks is just a very original person. So that was definitely the luckiest, most important thing that happened to me [meeting him]. Then I guess also meeting Ben Stiller. He cast me in the only thing I think I ever auditioned for and got: Cable Guy [1996]. And that led to us becoming friends.
Owen Wilson
Acting is more fun than writing. Writing is harder, more like having a term paper.
Owen Wilson
Anna Wintour has a reputation - she can be very intimidating - but that day [Valentino show] she was just smiling and laughing. That was my first time meeting her, and she seemed like she was having a great time. Everybody was enjoying themselves.
Owen Wilson
True love is your souls recognition of its counterpoint in another.
Owen Wilson
I think of Terrence Malick's movie Days of Heaven - one of Richard Gere's first movies - you can push pause on almost any image in the movie and it looks like a painting.
Owen Wilson
I guess that's the thing about Rome: It never changes.
Owen Wilson
We worked together with Wes Anderson writing a couple more movies together: Rushmore [1998] and Tenenbaums.
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
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
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
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
Hansel is certainly about comfort, while still sort of having a peacock principle of wanting to attract attention.
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.
