Rick Moranis makes Spaceballs comeback with The New One at Comic-Con
TL;DR Summary
Rick Moranis returned to acting after more than 20 years for Spaceballs: The New One, receiving a thunderous standing ovation at Comic-Con 2026. He said he wasn’t retired, just negotiating with Mel Brooks about a Spaceballs sequel since 1989. The cast includes Bill Pullman and Daphne Zuniga, with new stars Josh Gad and Keke Palmer (Gad also co-wrote). The film is set for a 2027 theatrical release, and a trailer spoofed Star Wars, Avatar and Marvel while nodding to John Candy’s legacy.
