Now that Rick Moranis has returned to television, it seems he’s set to make it back to the big screen. “Shrunk,” the upcoming follow-up to “Honey, I Shrunk The Kids,” one of Moranis’ most memorable performances, is in the works at Disney, and Moranis is on board for the project (via People).
Moranis starred in the original film as scientist and inventor Wayne Szalinksi. He’ll be returning to play that same role this time around, according to People, but the movie will focus on his now-adult son, Nick, played by Josh Gad. The movie is Moranis’ first major onscreen role since he stepped back to focus on his family, according to People.
The movie has been pushed back due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to Movieweb, but current plans aim for production to start sometime this year. Moranis’ return has sparked excitement for the movie, including an Instagram post from Gad teasing Moranis’ involvement.
