UPDATE: The Schwartz Awakens: “Epic” Spaceballs announcement coming this Friday

June 11, 2015 by Robert Kojder

Back in February, Mel Brooks revealed that he was keen on making the long-rumoured sequel to Spaceballs – a.k.a. Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money – and now the official Facebook page for the classic comedy is teasing something “epic” for Friday…

With Star Wars: The Force Awakens slated for a Christmas release, an attempt at rejuvenating Mel Brooks’ cult classic parody from the 80’s is logical. Who would actually star in it, I haven’t the faintest idea since many of the original stars are either retired, old, or dead.

Would you like to see Spaceballs 2? Let us know in the comments below…

UPDATE: Well, after all that, it turns out that the “epic” annoucnement is another Blu-ray release of the original Spaceballs. So, I guess it’s still the search for more money… just not the one we were hoping for.
