Mel Brooks, Spaceballs and Yogurt
Digest more
Spaceballs 2' will have Mel Brooks, the director/star of the original, returning as Yogurt, Amazon MGM Studios announced today.
This time he’ll just be acting, though, with Josh Greenbaum ( Barb and Star Go To Vista Del Mar) directing from a script by Benji Samit, Dan Hernandez, and Josh Gad. Gad is also expected to star, but that has yet to be officially confirmed.
Almost a decade ago, Lewis Pullman began his acting career by appearing opposite dad Bill Pullman in the western The Ballad of Lefty Brown. Since then, he’s forged his own path, appearing in high-flying features such as Top Gun: Maverick and Marvel Studios’ The Thunderbolts* and earning an Emmy nomination for Lessons in Chemistry.
Mel Brooks' 'Spaceballs' put a comedic dent in the sci-fi genre when it crashed onto the space-opera scene in 1987. Now, prequels and sequels later, it's back.
