‘Spaceballs 2’ Is Bringing Back an Adored Fan-Favorite Character



This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.

Josh Gad‘s Spaceballs sequel has its first returning cast member. Comedy legend Mel Brooks, who co-wrote and directed the original film, will be returning to play the Yoda-like sage Yogurt. Brooks played two roles in the film, but there’s no indication that he’ll return to the villainous role of President Skroob (which is, of course, “Brooks” backwards). Deadline reports that the film has also been added to Amazon MGM’s release calendar: it is now slated to hit theaters in 2027.

So far, details about the sequel are being kept under wraps, including its title, although the original film did tease Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money. Gad will pen the film and is also expected to star in it, while Josh Greenbaum (Barb and Star Go To Vista Del Mar) will direct. The film has been facetiously described as “A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film.” Brooks will turn 99 later this month, but has remained active: he recently narrated History of the World, Part II, another follow-up to one of his films (which also featured Gad’s involvement), and made a cameo appearance of himself on an episode of Only Murders In the Building.
