Bill Pullman first appeared in Spaceballs, a parody of Star Warsas Lone Starr. Now he will star in the sequel, this time alongside his son Lewis Pullman.
His son, on the other hand, is thrilled about working with him, saying, “We just wrapped, and…every day was such a journey,” the “Thunderbolts*” star said in an interview with People. “It…felt like a bizarre simulation. I just couldn’t believe my luck.”
He will appear as Starburst, a new character introduced to the franchise. The actor also adds, “We always wanted to do that, and we never knew if we were going to get the chance or not. And so when we did it in a movie like ‘Spaceballs 2,’ it was like, ‘What simulation… what world are we in now?'”
Meanwhile, Mel Brooks shared a video announcement of the long-awaited sequel, stating: “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 spin-offs, a movie spin-off of the TV spin-off, which is both a prequel and a sequel.” T
“But in 38 years,” it concluded before referencing other well-known franchises, Avatar, Harry Potter, And Jurassic Park. “There’s only been one ‘Spaceballs.’ So far…”
While the specific release date has yet to be announced, the Space balls sequel will hit theaters in 2027.
