The ‘Spaceballs’ sequel has a release date

The long-awaited sequel to the cult movie Spaceballs now has a release date: April 23, 2027.

Spaceballs was released on June 24, 1987, making the Spaceballs 2 premiere nearly 40 years later.

Original writer-director Mel Brooks officially announced Spaceballs 2 last year, with Bill Pullman, Rick Moranis, and Daphne Zuniga reprising their roles. Now, Amazon MGM Studios has announced the actual release date ahead of CinemaCon 2026, exclusively for Deadline.

From there, we really only know the details that were released last year, like that Josh Greenbaum (Will and Harper) is directing, and the script is written by Josh Gad, Benji Samit, and Dan Hernandez. Gad is also expected to star, along with Keke Palmer.
