Mel Brooks is returning as Yogurt in a sequel to the iconic 1987 film 'Spaceballs', which parodied the Star Wars saga. Co-writing and producing the sequel with Brooks is Josh Gad, who expressed excitement about working alongside the legendary director. The sequel, in development at Amazon-MGM, will have its plot and title undisclosed but is described as a unique take on sequels, blending original elements with fresh concepts. Notably, Brookes has insisted that fellow actor Rick Moranis return as well, reinforcing his commitment to preserving the film’s legacy.
"I told you we'd be back," Brooks wrote in a Bluesky post on Thursday.
"I was that child who saw Spaceballs before I ever saw Star Wars... it is therefore the greatest gift of my life to now help take the reins" - Josh Gad.
"Without Rick, I wouldn't do it... I've got the helmet in storage, just waiting for him," Brooks on Moranis.
The film has been described as 'A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two' but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film.
