SPACEBALLS THE TABLE READ — It’s hard to express how surreal it is to officially be in production on this movie. Mel Brooks inspired me to have this career, and the original means so much to me. So lucky I get to work with all these amazing people every day! MAY THE SCHWARTZ BE WITH YOU!

Wow! I'm at a loss for words.
I'm beyond excited for this. If someone were to have told the 8-year-old me I would get to watch a new Spaceballs movie, let alone have the honor of working on it, I would have used the Schwartz against you. And using the Schwartz is exactly what Mel Brooks, Josh Gad, and Amazon MGM Studios will be doing in theaters in 2027! This is a day one, must see release! If this is not the best announcement of the year, I'm not sure what is! #Spaceballs #MelBrooks #AmazonMGMStudios #onlyintheaters #ad

I was that child who saw “Spaceballs” before I ever saw “Star Wars” and then wondered why anyone would do a dramatic remake of the Mel Brooks classic. It is therefore the greatest gift of my life to now help take the reins and work alongside Mel and this incredible group to do a sequel to the movie that first inspired George Lucas.
