'Spaceballs 2' Trailer Spoofs 'Star Wars' Lightsaber Fights,
'Avatar' and Hollywood Mergers in Hilarious Sequel Titled
'The New One'
------------------------------------------------------------
Brooks didn't attend the annual convention in Las Vegas, but
the 99-year-old comedy legend sent a pre-taped video for the
long-awaited sequel to his 1987 sci-fi parody "Spaceballs."
In the short clip, he also announced the sequel's official
title, "Spaceballs: The New One."

The film reunites original cast members Rick Moranis as Lord
Dark Helmet, George Wyner as Colonel Sandurz, Daphne Zuniga
as Princess Vespa, Bill Pullman as Lone Starr and Brooks as
the Yoda-esque being Yogurt. Joining the ensemble is Josh Gad,
Keke Palmer, Lewis Pullman and Anthony Carrigan, who take on
portray new characters whose identities are being kept secret.

Moranis, Zuniga, Gad and both Pullmans took the CinemaCon
stage to debut the "Spaceballs: The New One" trailer, which
spoofed everything from "Star Wars" to "Avatar" to "Harry
Potter." Just like the opening to "The Force Awakens," there's
a sandy desert scene with robots and Jedi-like explorers
wandering the dunes - plus someone frozen in carbonite like
Han Solo. The sci-fi jokes came fast and quick, including
Moranis' Lord Dark Helmet peeing at a urinal next to a Na'vi
from "Avatar."

Amazon MGM is being similarly coy about the sequel's storyline,
writing in a release thata"plot details are being kept under
lock, key, and an industrial-strength Schwartz shield."aLike
the original, the follow-up film will take place in a galaxy
very, very, very, very far away and is expected to riff on
popular sci-fi franchises including "Star Wars," "Star Trek"
and "Alien."

Josh Greenbaum, who is known for "Barb and Star Go to Vista
Del Mar" and "Will & Harper," is directing from a script by Gad,
Benji Samit and Dan Hernandez.a"Spaceballs: The New One" is set
to release on April 23, 2027.

Brooks, who co-wrote and directed the original sci-fi spoof,
shared news of the sequel last year with a video in the
signature "Star Wars" crawl, which read: "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 spinoffs,
a movie spinoff of the TV spinoff, which is both a prequel and
a sequel [...] But in 38 years, there has only ever been one
'Spaceballs.' Until now..."
