Spaceballs

It’s been almost 30 years since Spaceballs hit theaters, and Rick Moranis is finally back under the (dark) helmet. Watch the beloved star come out of retirement to reprise his role as Dark Helmet in a clip from Wednesday’s Goldbergs episode.

Rick Moranis is coming out of retirement for a fan-favorite role. The beloved Ghostbusters and Honey, I Shrunk The Kids star will lend his voice to an episode of ABC’s The Goldbergs, reprising his famous Spaceballs role as Dark Helmet.

A sad day for fans of Eight is Enough and the world at large, as representatives of actor Dick Van Patten have confirmed news that the 86-year old passed away of unknown causes. The lifelong star was also known for his work in such Mel Brooks movies as Spaceballs and Robin Hood: Men in Tights.

Released in 1987, Mel Brooks' 'Star Wars' spoof 'Spaceballs' followed the adventures of a renegade space cowboy named Lone Starr as he fought to stop the evil Dark Helmet. Join us as we look back at the cast of this classic comedy and investigate what they're up to these days.

Haven't you ever wanted to travel at ludicrous speed? It's easy to say that 'Spaceballs' made quite the impression on us all when we first saw it and now we get to relive the silliness again on Blu-ray this August with the 'Spaceballs' 25th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray.
