   Yes, "Spaceballs" might become a trilogy.   
      
      
       Spaceballs 3 Rumor Hints at Exciting Sequel Update   
       After Part 2 Announcement   
       --------------------------------------------------   
       A new insider report reveals that Spaceballs 3 is already in   
       development at Amazon MGM Studios. With Spaceballs 2 still set   
       for a 2027 theatrical release, the early news hints at a larger   
       franchise expansion. If confirmed, it would mark a surprising   
       continuation of Mel Brooks' sci-fi parody universe nearly four   
       decades after the original.   
      
       Spaceballs 3 already in works at Amazon MGM Studios   
       Amazon MGM Studios is currently developing Spaceballs 3,   
       according to an insider post from MyTimeToShineHello on X   
       (formerly Twitter), who stated, "MGM already developing a   
       SPACEBALLS 3." The report surfaced on July 6, 2025, but Amazon   
       has not yet shared an update regarding the project.   
      
       This development follows earlier news about a Spaceballs sequel   
       featuring original cast members. Bill Pullman and Rick Moranis   
       are reportedly confirmed to reprise their roles as Lone Starr   
       and Dark Helmet (via Deadline). Keke Palmer and Lewis Pullman   
       have also joined the cast in undisclosed roles. Mel Brooks is   
       returning as Yogurt, the character he portrayed in the 1987   
       original film.   
      
       The upcoming installment is scheduled for theatrical release in   
       2027. The project is described as "A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot   
       Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion   
       Film."   
      
       Josh Greenbaum will direct the movie from a screenplay by Benji   
       Samit, Dan Hernandez, and Josh Gad. Gad will also star in the   
       film and serve as a producer alongside Brian Grazer, Ron Howard,   
       Jeb Brody, Greenbaum and Mel Brooks. Executive producers include   
       Kevin Salter, Adam Merims, Samit, and Hernandez.   
      
       The original Spaceballs, released in 1987 by MGM, was a sci-fi   
       parody inspired by movies like Star Wars and 2001: A Space   
       Odyssey. It stars Bill Pullman, Rick Moranis, Mel Brooks, John   
       Candy, and Daphne Zuniga. Despite its mixed critical reception,   
       the movie has gained a strong cult following over the years.   
      
       Rick Moranis's involvement in Spaceballs 2 marks a rare return to   
       acting, having largely stepped back from the industry since the   
       late 1990s. Bill Pullman, meanwhile, continues to work in   
       television and film, with upcoming roles in The Boroughs and   
       Famous. Keke Palmer is also set to appear in The Pickup, Good   
       Fortune, and I Love Boosters later in 2025.
