Mel Brooks had a galactic announcement at CinemaCon: the title for the forthcoming Spaceballs sequel. No, it’s not Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money.

It’s simply Spaceballs: The New One, as he revealed via a video at CinemaCon on Wednesday night.

The feature is the sequel to Brooks’ seminal 1987 Star Wars parody, which he directed and co-wrote. Original members of the cast returning include Rick Moranis, George Wyner, Daphne Zuniga, Bill Pullman and Brooks.

Pullman’s son, Thunderbolts and Top Gun: Maverick actor Lewis Pullman, is among the new castmembers, along with Josh Gad, Keke Palmer and Anthony Carrigan. Their roles are a secret, though The Hollywood Reporter previously reported that the younger Pullman will play the son of his father’s character, the Han Solo-esque Lone Starr.
