The Schwartz Awakens: SPACEBALLS 2 Teaser Reveals Mel Brooks Returns as Yogurt! — GeekTyrant
After nearly four decades of rumors, jokes, and fan-fueled wishful thinking, Spaceballs 2 is actually happening, and Mel Brooks is officially back as Yogurt. Brooks, now 99 years old, is suiting up once again as the golden-robed master of the Schwartz in Amazon MGM Studios' sequel to the 1987 cult classic Spaceballs . The teaser trailer dropped with Brooks himself front and center, confirming what many believed would never happen: 'The Search for More Money' is no longer just a punchline. Brooks won't be writing or directing this time around, but he will be acting, bringing his signature energy and sharp comedic timing back to the franchise. The film is slated for a theatrical release in 2027, marking the 40-year anniversary of the original. Josh Greenbaum ( Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar) is directing the sequel, working from a script by Benji Samit, Dan Hernandez, and Josh Gad. Gad is also expected to star in the film, though his role hasn't been confirmed just yet. For longtime fans, this sequel has been a long-running gag. The original Spaceballs literally joked about a follow-up with Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money , as part of its satirical take of Star Wars . At the time, a sequel felt impossible, mostly because Star Wars itself was considered a finished franchise. But, then came the Special Editions, then the Prequels, then the Disney takeover. Now we've got sequels, spinoffs, and Jedi content for days. So naturally, the Schwartz had to awaken. And speaking of that, the teaser name-drops 'The Schwartz Awakens,' making it pretty clear the sequel trilogy is in the parody crosshairs this time. According to Amazon, the movie is being described as: 'A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film.' While there's no official word on whether original cast members like Bill Pullman (Lone Star) or Rick Moranis (Dark Helmet) will return, fans can probably expect a handoff to a new cast of characters discovering the power of the Schwartz. But at least we know Yogurt will be there to guide them… probably with more merch. With Mel Brooks back, the Schwartz stronger than ever, and an actual sequel on the way, Spaceballs 2 isn't just a meta-joke anymore.
