'Spaceballs 2' is on its way, with Mel Brooks, Bill Pullman, and Rick Moranis reprising their roles
The Schwartz has been awakened! That's right: Writer-director Mel Brooks' cult classic Spaceballs is getting a sequel, 40 years after the sci-fi parody's original release. Jury's still out on whether it will be called Spaceballs 2: The The Search for More Money, as the original film joked. SEE ALSO: The 10 best movies of 2025 (so far), and where to watch them Amazon MGM Studios announced the sequel will be arriving in theaters in 2027, with a video of Brooks himself discussing making more Spaceballs. "After 40 years, we asked, 'What do the fans want?'" Brooks says. "But instead, we're making this movie." The video also sends up just how drastically the franchise landscape has changed since Spaceballs' 1987 release. In an opening title crawl, the video reminds us that there are now three Star Wars trilogies, several spin-off TV shows, and a whole host of other massive franchises, like "36 MCU movies with two different Robert Downey Jr.'s." So where will Spaceballs 2 fit into the world of franchises? Is it a sequel? A prequel? A reboot? According to its log line, it's actually "A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film." While Spaceballs 2's plot details are currently under wraps, there's still lots to get excited about. Brooks will be reprising the role of Yogurt, Spaceballs' Yoda stand-in who encourages hero Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) to use the Schwartz. According to Deadline, Pullman is also set to return in Spaceballs 2, along with Rick Moranis, who played Spaceballs' villainous Dark Helmet. The role would mark Moranis' return to live-action films after a hiatus of 28 years. (Moranis did do voice work, like Brother Bear, as well as TV work during this time.) On top of the returning Spaceballs cast members, Spaceballs 2 will star Keke Palmer. Josh Gad is also expected to star. Gad wrote the script alongside Benji Samit and Dan Hernandez. Josh Greenbaum (Will & Harper, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar) will direct. Spaceballs 2 hits theaters in 2027.

New 'Spaceballs' film announced in epic video with Mel Brooks: Watch here
A new "Spaceballs" film is coming, with Mel Brooks slated to return in his iconic role as Yogurt, Amazon MGM Studios announced on Thursday. While details about the film's plot and cast are being kept under wraps, it is being described as "A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film." Josh Greenbaum, known for directing "Will & Harper," "Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar," and more, is slated to direct. It opens with onscreen text in the iconic " Star Wars"-style crawl, which reads, "Thirty-eight years ago, there was only one 'Star Wars' trilogy. But since then, there have been… a prequel trilogy, a sequel trilogy, a sequel to the prequel, a prequel to the sequel, countless TV spinoffs, a movie spinoff of the TV spinoff, which is both a prequel and a sequel...." The crawl continues, noting the release of two "Dune" films, seven "Jurassic Park" films, multiple past and upcoming "Avatar" films, and more, adding, "But in 38 years, there has only ever been one… 'SPACEBALLS'… Until now…." Brooks, also the director of the original 1987 "Spaceballs" film, then appears onscreen, saying, "After 40 years, we asked, 'What do the fans want?' But instead, we're making this movie." The video cuts to an image of Lord Dark Helmet with text that reads, "The Schwartz Awakens in 2027." "May the Schwartz be with you," Brooks adds. The legendary filmmaker also took to X and shared the announcement in a post, writing, "I told you we'd be back." "Spaceballs" premiered nearly four decades ago. Set in a distant galaxy, the cult-classic space opera film, co-written by Brooks, parodies the "Star Wars" trilogy and other popular sci-fi franchises including "Star Trek," "2001: A Space Odyssey" and more. According to a synopsis for the film, it follows a star-pilot for hire and his sidekick, who must come to the rescue of a princess and save Planet Druidia from the clutches of the evil Spaceballs. Brooks starred in the film alongside John Candy, Rick Moranis, Joan Rivers, Daphne Zuniga and more. The new "Spaceballs" film will be produced by Imagine Entertainment's Brian Grazer and Jeb Brody, Josh Gad and Josh Greenbaum. Kevin Salter, Adam Merims, Benji Samit and Dan Hernandez will also executive produce. The new film will arrive in 2027.

Law & Order: Organized Crime Season Finale Recap: Did Grief Lure Stabler Into Making a Choice He Can't Undo? — Plus, Grade It!
After Joe Jr.'s death in last week's Law & Order: Organized Crime, Stabler is in a very bad way at the start of the Season 5 finale. Let's face it: El has never been a super by-the-books type of cop, and when crushing grief enters the picture, he's poised to make choices that will set him on a very bad path in the future. But does he make them? Read on for the highlights of 'He Was a Stabler.' More from TVLine Casting News: black-ish Star Joins Boston Blue, Carrie TV Series Adds 14 and More Law & Order: Organized Crime Finale Sneak Peek: Randall Begs Stabler to Come Home After Joe's Murder (Exclusive) Casting News: Felicity Huffman Joins Doc, Jen Garner Drama Adds Chloë Sevigny and More LIGHT IT UP UP UP | In an empty warehouse somewhere, McKenna leaves Stabler alone with Vincent Mathis, Emery's thug. 'You have no idea the lengths I'm going to go to go get what I want,' Stabler says, dousing the bald bad guy with lighter fluid and striking a match. He offers him a choice: Mathis can answer Stabler's questions about Emery's whereabouts now 'or after I put out the fire,' Elliot says menacingly. 'What's it gonna be?' Bell and Reyes, who are both back at the office, theorize that Emery is hiding out in New York while everyone is looking for him. The sergeant tells Reyes that Stabler has taken bereavement leave; Reyes notes that's extremely unlike their workaholic colleague. Then Tanner shows up to let them know that the Captagon (Emery's designer drug) deal is still going through, and the new NYPD dictate is to bring Emery in alive. Tanner is worried that Stabler won't steer clear of the situation, but Bell assures her he will. Just then, Reyes gets a text… and it's Stabler, absolutely not steering clear of the situation. Reyes reluctantly agrees to help Stabler, who hands over Mathis for processing and asks Reyes to do some digging to find Emery's whereabouts. Then Stabler and McKenna go to a diner where Elliot says he's dreading telling his mother about Joe's death. McKenna knows that Stabler wants to kill Emery, and he's on board, but he's apparently also become a well adjusted paragon of mental health in the few episodes since we last saw him. 'Revenge doesn't bring light,' he advises, ' just a different kind of darkness.' A PACKAGE FROM JOE | Stabler and McKenna have just finished roughing up one of Emery's contacts when Randall texts, demanding a meeting. The brothers meet, and Randall hands over an envelope that arrived with a note for Elliot: It's a broken flash drive from Joe Jr. 'When he was in my arms, he said, 'I mailed it,'' Elliot says. Then he instructs Randall to take the rest of the family out to Bernie's house in Montauk for a few days to keep them safe. 'You got people to take care of here, Elliot,' Randall says, begging his brother not to continue on the path he's chosen. 'Go to Montauk,' Elliot says in parting. He then secretly meets with a very confused Vargas, who agrees to try to get the files off Joe's broken drive. Stabler and McKenna figure out that Emery's ex-wife and son are in New York, so they swing by to do a little light intimidation. The ex, Allegra, quickly realizes what's going on and calls Emery, putting him on speaker so that he can directly talk to Stabler. But Elliot's threats don't work — Emery basically tells his son 'good luck, kid! See ya never.' However, Vargas tracks the call, which gives Stabler and McKenna the Brit's location. Once more, McKenna proves the cooler head (I know, weird, right?) by having Stabler pause for a second before he busts in and tries to take out Emery himself. BACK WITH THE TEAM | Next thing we know, Stabler marches into the office and announces that he knows where Emery is going. Looks like he made the correct choice after all! Bell is livid that Stabler's been working the case the whole time and that her staffers have been lying to her about helping him. 'Sarge, I understand,' Stabler says. 'Now, we can sit here and discuss all the ways that I f—ked up, or we can get after Emery.' So they do. Bell, Stabler, Tanner, Reyes and a bunch more cops storm Emery's transport; a gunfight erupts. Emery sneaks away, but Stabler eventually corners him. There's a moment where it's not clear that Stabler is going to abide by the 'bring him in alive' mandate, but then Bell appears and takes the choice away from him by grabbing Emery's gun and cuffing him. Emery knows his future is bleak if he doesn't do something big, so he offers his inside knowledge of three top Hezbollah leaders in exchange for an unfreezing of his assets and house arrest on his estate in Devonshire. And… he gets it! 'HE KILLED MY BROTHER!' Stabler yells in protest, but it's a done deal: The Brit is getting off easy. CHANGE OF PLANS | But! Just before Stabler stalks out of the office in disgust, Vargas makes a breakthrough with the flash drive: It's full of photos and other evidence against Emery, proving that Joe Jr. truly was working against his criminal boss for the past six months. And that evidence negates Emery's deal with the Department of Justice. 'Whatever my brother's problems were, he was a Stabler, and he just put your ass away for the rest of your life,' Stabler says. Earlier in the episode, Randall found a half-filled-out application for the New York Police Department that Joe had abandoned years before. So that's on Elliot's mind after he finishes talking with Emery. 'Today, he was a cop, and a good one,' Stabler tells Reyes, Bell, Vargas and Tanner after he exits the interrogation room. Elliot finds Bernie and tells her they're going to a ceremony for Joe Jr. — he doesn't say exactly what's going on, but she starts to cry. HAS NO ONE TOLD THIS WOMAN HER CHILD IS DEAD YET? Then the family gathers in a hallway at what I'm assuming is NYPD headquarters, where a plaque commemorates Joe among notable cops who've died in the line of duty. (Bell pulled some strings.) The hour ends with Stabler and McKenna getting a six pack and hang out at the waterfront, looking at the lights of the city and toasting Stabler's little brother. Now it's your turn.
