Los Angeles [US], April 4 (ANI): Amazon MGM Studios has locked April 23, 2027, as the release date for ‘Spaceballs 2’.
The film, directed by Josh Greenbaum (Will & Harper) and penned by Josh Gad, Dan Hernandez, and Benji Samit, is shrouded in secrecy, but it’s widely expected to serve as a follow-up to the 1987 cult classic helmed by Mel Brooks, who also starred in the original.
The film brings back original stars like Mel Brooks, Rick Moranis, Bill Pullman, George Wynder, and Daphne Zuniga, while introducing a fresh lineup featuring Josh Gad, Keke Palmer, Lewis Pullman, and Anthony Carrigan.
In December 2025, Daphne penned a heartfelt note after attending the wrap party of ‘Spaceballs 2’.
“That’s a wrap! The boys & me at the Spaceballs 2 wrap party. One of the most incredible experiences ever; so much joy, fun, creativity and respect. Had many flashbacks of when we made the first film nearly 40 years ago, and maybe a few hot flashes too! @joshgad @josh.greenbaum #RickMoranis #billpullman yahoo! I really hope the world loves this movie as much as we loved making it!!!! PS you’re never too old to play,” Daphne posted.
Producers are Imagine’s Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, Jeb Brody, as well as Brooks, Gad, Greenbaum and Kevin Salter. EPs are Adam Merims, Samit, and Hernandez. Production companies are Imagine Entertainment, Brooksfilms Limited and Angry Child Productions.
