The iconic Mel Brooks, who wrote, directed and starred in the original 1987 “Spaceballs,” and MGM Studios have released the above trailer to announce that Spaceballs 2 is moving forward with plans for a theatrical release in 2027.
The sequel, which was announced last year, already has Brooks attached as a producer with Josh Greenbaum attached to direct.
Brooks will be reprising his role of Yogurt for the Josh Gad led sequel. Bill Pullman will be returning as Lone Starr, and it sounds like RICK MORANIS will be coming out of retirement to reprise his role as Dark Helmet!
“After 40 years, we asked, ‘What do the fans want?’ Brooks says in the Spaceballs 2 trailer. “But instead, we’re making this movie.”
He added one final send-off: “May the Schwartz be with you.”
