Spaceballs sequel from Mel Brooks set for April 2027

A new Spaceballs movie from Mel Brooks is scheduled to hit theaters in April 2027. The film will star Mel Brooks alongside Rick Moranis and Josh Gad, and the cast has already held a table read. The project revives the 1987 cult comedy and brings back Moranis, who has been largely retired from acting. The release reunites original talent, taps strong nostalgia, and could spur studios to revive other classic franchises.
