Lewis Pullman Is In Talks To Join His Dad In Spaceballs 2, And The Internet Knows Exactly Which Character He Should Play
If you sensed a stir yesterday among Spaceballs enthusiasts, it’s because they’re ecstatic about the announcement that Spaceballs 2 might hit screens in 2027! Not only could Bill Pullman and Rick Moranis be reprising their roles, but there are rumors of another actor potentially joining the cast. Guess who fans think it should be? You got it! The casting discussions are ongoing.
Simultaneously with reports that Pullman and Moranis were attached to this sequel emerged news that Keke Palmer was set to introduce a fresh character. Later reports suggest Lewis Pullman, son of Bill, is in negotiations to appear alongside his father in the sequel. The excitement among fans about casting one of the stars from the latest Thunderbolts* film is palpable, and they’ve already envisioned him as the movie’s rendition of Kylo Ren. Remarks on social media echo this enthusiasm.
- no other option than for lewis to parody ben solo – @balancedpadawan
- BEN SOLO PARODY I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THESE – @theres_a_bea
- If this ends up true and he plays the parody of Ben Solo you’ll never hear me shut up about it – @isacchili
- WELCOME BACK KYLO REN – @hxwkes_
- omg is he gonna be the kylo ren knock off?? if so, i will be obsessed – @anxious_kitty
Once someone suggests it, it becomes hard to imagine anything else. If we suppose that Spaceballs 2 might draw heavily from the Star Wars sequel trilogy’s ideas, then developing a character modeled after Kylo Ren seems logical. Given this character should be Lone Starr’s son, portrayed by Bill Pullman in the original film, having him play the role of his actual son fits perfectly well with the plot.
Currently, I’m picturing Lewis Pullman as an overly dramatic, wine-loving goth teen having a fit, and it’s already making me chuckle. The actor from “Top Gun: Maverick” isn’t just fitting because he’s Bill Pullman’s son; rather, he would be a brilliant choice to satirize Adam Driver. I wholeheartedly endorse this entire concept.
If the rumors about Rick Moranis returning are true, things could become quite thrilling! After all, Kylo Ren never had a chance to interacts with Darth Vader. It’s hard not to anticipate some real laughter when their spoof counterparts meet each other.
Even though the movie is still two years off, there’s plenty that could change. However, with a reported fantastic cast and a sequel in development, it’s truly exciting! Now we can delve into the intriguing discussion of whether the title should be “Spaceballs 2: The Pursuit of More Money” or perhaps “Spaceballs 3: The Quest for Spaceballs 2”.
