Actor Lewis Pullman has reflected on working with his father, Hollywood veteran Bill Pullman, in Josh Greenbaum’s Spaceballs 2, an upcoming live-action sequel to Mel Brooks’s 1987 comedy classic.

In a recent interview, Lewis said that the project was a “dream come true” for him.

“It was a dream come true. We just wrapped, and … every day was such a trip. It … felt like a bizarre simulation. I just couldn’t believe my luck,” the 32-year-old actor told entertainment magazine People.

“We’ve been wanting to do that (work together with father Bill) forever and we never knew whether we could get the chance or not. And so doing it on a movie like Spaceballs 2 was just like, ‘What simulation … what world are we in right now’,” he added.

The upcoming Amazon MGM Studios film also stars Mel Brooks, Rick Moranis, Keke Palmer, Daphne Zuniga, and George Wyner.

Spaceballs, which was a parody on popular sci-fi movies like Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien and The Wizard of Oz, followed mercenary Lone Starr (Bill) and his alien sidekick Barf (John Candy) as they rescued Princess Vespa (Zuniga) and her droid from the evil planet Spaceball, which was trying to steal the air from her home planet, Druidia. Spaceball was ruled by President Skroob (Brooks).

The plot details of the sequel are not known yet.
