The Schwartz is with San Diego Comic-Con International 2026.

After debuting footage at CinemaCon 2026 and offering the first glimpse of Rick Moranis and centenarian Mel Brooks in a while, pop culture fans will get their first look at the cast and footage of Spaceballs: The New One at SDCC 2026.

It’s been forty years since Spaceballs, which gave us the ultimate spoof of Star Wars and our favorite characters and lines from President Skroob, Dark Helmet, Lone Starr, Yogurt, and Barf.

Brooks (Skroob) and Moranis (Dark Helmet) return to the cast with Bill Pullman (Lone Starr) and Daphne Zuniga (Princess Vespa). They will be joined by Josh Gad (who replaces the beloved John Candy) as Barf, Keke Palmer, Anthony Carrigan, George Wyner, and Lewis Pullman.

Here is the Spaceballs: The New Synopsis:

Somehow, Dark Helmet has returned! Forty years after the events of the first Spaceballs, fifty years after the events of Star Wars: A New Hope, and one year after the events of The Devil Wears Prada 2, the galaxy is once again under threat. A threat so evil, so unstoppable, so completely lacking in any original ideas, that it has vowed to bring back the past…every last bit of it.

With Lone Starr in hiding, Queen Vespa on the throne, and the Schwartz stretched thinner than a franchise releasing TV episodes theatrically, the only hope for the galaxy is Vespa’s undisciplined son, Prince Starburst, and a mysterious Palace advisor named Destiny. Together, they must find Lone Starr, Yogurt, and any other iconic legacy characters fans are demanding before they discover the hard way that, while some threats you can fight, the reboot is not one of them.
