Josh Gad Announces Filming has Wrapped on “Spaceballs 2”, now all we have to do is figure out how to wait patiently for another year and a half! Spaceballs: The Schwartz Returns to Theaters in 2027 with Rick Moranis and Mel Brooks. Mel Brooks and Amazon MGM+ officially announced that the Spaceballs sequel will hit theaters in 2027. Josh Gad, as a co-writer and producer, has announced that filming has wrapped as of December 1st, 2025.
Josh Gad posted an update on Spaceballs 2 yesterday: “I cannot believe we are here. It really was Ludicrous speed, but that is an official picture wrap on #Spaceballs2. 3 years ago, I called Mel Brooks with an idea for a film forty years in the making. I could not believe he said yes. But more importantly, I cannot believe that we actually got to make it. This movie has been the greatest creative experience of my entire life. I cannot wait to share it with you all. See you in Space!”
