If you grew up in either the ’80s or ’90s, chances are one your favorite films was the 1989 family fun classic Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, in addition to its sequels Honey, I Blew Up the Kid from 1992 and Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves released on home video in 1997. Now, after a 23-year break and surprisingly no reboots in-between, a new film is currently in the works with its lead star Rick Moranis ficially jumping back in the lab as Wayne Szalinski.

The past two decades have been good on Moranis, who was spotted looking pretty well back in 2017 at an afterparty for In & Of Itself in NYC (seen above), making his reported return to the series feel even more exciting. One the reasons he hasn’t made another film in the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids series, or any other project since the mid-2000s, was due to his slow transition into an acting hiatus to be a single father two following the death his wife in 1991. Now, at the young age 66-years-old, it looks like he’ll be back and ready to dust f that old lab coat. Deadline reports the film, simply titled Shrunk, will be distributed through Disney and bring back original director Joe Johnston. In terms the plot, actor Josh Gad is set to star as an adult Nick Szalinski who apparently ends up shrinking his own kids. Shrunk is also scheduled to hit theaters and not the popular Disney+ streaming service, so get ready to make a return to theaters as well.
