Rick Moranis Returns To Acting As Spaceballs 2 Starts Production
Today, Amazon MGM Studios announced Spaceballs 2 is now in production and revealing the cast for the long awaited sequel. Yes! Rick Moranis will once again be Dark Helmet!!
When the gossip started that nearly 40 years later Mel Brooks Spaceball would have a sequel, it was hard to believe. If anything it was pure fantasy for fans of the original film and even more Moranis coming out of acting retirement. Now he’s returning to a galaxy very, very, very, very far away, we are very, very, very, very excited.
Need anymore evidence, here’s an official image of the cast (old and new) together for a first table read…
Moranis, Zuniga, Bill Pullman, Brooks, and Wyner will reprise their iconic roles in the long-awaited sequel to the 1987 MGM sci-fi parody that warped its way into cult comedy history, while Gad, Palmer, Lewis Pullman, and Carrigan will take on brand-new characters whose identities are being kept tightly under wraps. The same can be said about the potential plot for this sequel…
The rest of the cast joining Rick Moranis (Ghostbusters; Little Shop of Horrors; Honey, I Shrunk the Kids franchise). Are Josh Gad (Frozen; Beauty and the Beast; The Wedding Ringer), Keke Palmer (Nope; One of Them Days), Lewis Pullman (The Testament of Ann Lee; Thunderbolts), Anthony Carrigan (Barry; Superman), George Wyner (A Serious Man; A Million Little Things), Daphne Zuniga (Melrose Place; One Tree Hill), and Bill Pullman (Independence Day; Lost Highway; The Sinner) are set to star in the studio’s new Spaceballs film, alongside previously announced star, Mel Brooks.
The road for Spaceballs 2 has just started, production finally underway. It’s one we’re looking forward to walking on, roll on 2027!
