That’s right! Today, Amazon MGM Studios announced that Mel Brooks is set to reprise his role as ‘Yogurt’ in a new Spaceballs film. The sequel to the 1987 MGM cult classic will be released in theaters in 2027.
Josh Greenbaum is directing the film from a script by Benji Samit, Dan Hernandez, and Josh Gad. Plot details are being kept under wraps.
