Los Angeles, April 5 "Spaceballs 2", an upcoming live-action sequel to the 1987 Mel Brooks comedy classic featuring Lewis Pullman, is set to release on April 23, 2027.
The film is directed by Josh Greenbaum and written by Josh Gad, Dan Hernandez, and Benji Samit, according to the entertainment news outlet Deadline.
The plot details are being kept under wraps.
Actor Josh Gad is set to star and produce the project alongside 99-year-old Hollywood veteran Mel Brooks, who co-wrote, directed, and produced the original 1987 cult classic.
"Spaceballs", which was a parody of popular sci-fi movies like "Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Alien", and "The Wizard of Oz", followed mercenary Lone Starr (Pullman) and his sidekick Barf (John Candy) as they rescued Princess Vespa and her droid from the evil Spaceballs, who planned to steal Druidia's air.
Stranded on a desert moon, they met Yogurt (Brooks), who taught Starr the power of "the Schwartz". Meanwhile, the bumbling Dark Helmet (Moranis) and Colonel Sandurz tried to track them down.
Brian Grazer and Jeb Brody are producing under Imagine, along with Gad, Brooks, and Greenbaum. Kevin Slater, Adam Merims, Benji Samit, and Dan Hernandez will serve as executive producers.
The film will also feature Anthony Carrigan.
