James Corden hopes to land a role in Zoolander 2 alongside Ben Stiller and Will Ferrell.

36-year-old actor and TV presenter James Corden is hoping to be cast in the long-awaited sequel to the 2001 comedy hit, Zoolander according to The Sun.

Since the sequel was officially confirmed a number of A-list stars have been linked to roles in the movie, including Kanye West.

 A movie source said: ''Kanye is friends with Will and appeared briefly in Anchorman 2 but he wanted to be in Zoolander 2 even more. It's very likely that Kim [Kardashian] will also appear in some capacity.''

Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld was also tipped for a cameo, but he quickly ended those rumours explaining he has no desire to become an actor. 

He said: ''I don't want to be in the movie. They wanted me to be in the movie! I'm not an actor.''

Zoolander 2 is set for release in February 2016.
