Spaceballs 2 Sequel Starring Bill Pullman Rick Moranis Lewis Pullman Keke Palmer

Amazon MGM Studios is hard at work to bring us the sequel we never knew we wanted to Mel Brooks' 1987 cult classic sci-fi spoof "Spaceballs", which parodied the original "Star Wars" trilogy, "2001: A Space Odyssey" and more. Bill Pullman and Rick Moranis are set to reprise their roles as Lone Starr and Dark Helmet, and they will be joined by newcomers Keke Palmer ("Nope", "One of Them Days") and Pullman's son Lewis Pullman ("Thunderbolts").

Character and plot details are being kept under wraps. Brooks, who recently turned 99 years old, will also return to reprise his role as Yogurt. The film has been described as "A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film." It will be released in theaters in 2027.

Josh Greenbaum ("Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar") will direct from a script by Benji Samit, Dan Hernandez, and Josh Gad. Gad is also expected to star and will produce alongside Imagine Entertainment's Brian Grazer, Ron Howard and Jeb Brody. Brooks, Greenbaum, Kevin Salter, Adam Merims, Samit, and Hernandez are also executive producing.

Lewis Pullman can next be seen in the Duffer Brothers' Netflix series "The Boroughs", and A24's "Famous", which also stars Zac Efron.

For Moranis the film represents an unexpected return to acting after he stepped away in the late '90s to focus on raising his children following the passing of his wife, costume designer Ann Belsky. He only made an appearance in a 2020 ad for Mint Mobile alongside Ryan Reynolds.

Palmer can be seen in Amazon's heist comedy "The Pickup", opposite Eddie Murphy, Aziz Ansari's Lionsgate comedy "Good Fortune", and Boots Riley's "I Love Boosters".
