Lewis Pullman reveals unexpected move Mel Brooks made on ‘Spaceballs 2′
Lewis Pullman, son of Bill Pullman the original Spaceballs star, made an unexpected admission about Mel Brooks.
Brooks is set to reprise his role as Yogurt and President Skroob, 40-years after the first film, meanwhile, Pullman will play a new role, Starbust, the son of Lone Starr and Queen Vespa.
In an interview on The View, the Testament of Ann Lee star was asked about wrapping up the production of Spaceballs 2.
“Spaceballs fans rejoiced when the legendary Mel Brooks announced that 40 years later, we’re finally getting Spaceballs 2,” asked the host Sara Haines adding, “Now, production is already wrapped. What was that like?”
The Thuderbolts actor confirmed that “we just wrapped last Tuesday” on production of the project.
When asked about meeting the legendry star, he admitted that, “Mel didn’t come out.”
“He’s a homebody, but he was definitely part of it. His spirit was there, he was part of the design of it,” Pullman replied.
He continued, “I still haven’t met him, but when he sent me the role, I got a voice note from him. I wish you could frame a voice note. I couldn’t believe it because I grew up watching that movie.”
Discussing about the significance of the film, Pullman added, “That was one of my dad’s movies I was allowed to watch growing up, and I remember seeing Star Wars, and I was like, ‘Why did they remake Spaceballs without all the jokes?'”
“The writing is so smart and so dumb at the same time in the best way,” he said of the sequel’s story. “It’s so intelligently designed!”
In addition to Brooks, Rick Moranis (Lord Dark Helmet), Daphne Zuniga (Queen Vespa) , George Wyner (Colonel Sandurz) and Bill Pullman (Lone Starr) will respire their roles.
Meanwhile, Keke Palmer (Destiny), Josh Gad (role not revealed) and Anthony Carrigan (role not revealed) will be the new faces.
Spaceballs 2 will be released in 2027.
Jake Connelly, 13, made his major breakout in the final season of hit sci-fi series Stranger Things.
Connelly stars in the Netflix original as Derek Turnbow, a foul mouther school bully, who initially torments younger characters like Holly Wheeler (Nell Fisher).
Originally he appears to be a minor stereotypical bully, but the creators expanded his role turning Derek into a more compelling character who redeems himself and becomes an ally against the Upside Down threats.
Given his sudden rise, Connelly is set to make an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
During the talk, the duo had a light-hearted conversation based on his role in Stranger Things.
Connelly shared some memorable moments from the set like being accidentally tackled by Noah Schnapp while filming and then next day Schnapp came to him to apologise.
He also shared how fans have given him nickname of “Delightful Derek” and “PG-13 Cartman” (from South) because of his hilarious, sassy attitude.
The series epic season finale will see Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Joe Keery, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Winona Ryder, David Harbour, and more in their reprised roles, as they face off against the mysterious Upside Down for the last time.
Stranger Things season five volume two will be released on December 25, meanwhile, volume three will be released on New Year’s Eve, with limited theatrical release in over 350 theatres across USA and Canada on New Year’s Day.
