Rick Moranis had to be a "real" dad for his Honey, I Shrunk the Kids co-star when she tried to drink while underage.

After announcing the legacy-quel, Josh Gad gave a bittersweet update on where thing stand with the Honey, I Shrunk The Kids reboot.

Bringing Rick Moranis back was just the start of delivering a worthy successor to this long dormant franchise.

After a 23-year absence from film and television, Rick Moranis is returning for the new Disney+ series Shrunk.

Maybe he was just really tiny the whole time?

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids star Rick Moranis is ending his long retirement to appear in Disney's upcoming sequel.

Well, this is pretty major: The ink has dried on a deal ensuring Rick Moranis will return for a sequel feature film to 1989's Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. Moranis has kept an extremely low profile over the last decade or so, with no major film or television appearances on the books since 2006's Brother Bear 2 but it's really been over 20 years since he's had a hefty role to speak of.

Can't shrink this excitement!

Original Honey, I Shrunk the Kids star Rick Moranis is reprising his role as Wayne Szalinski in Disney's upcoming movie sequel, Shrunk.

The newest rumor may be much smaller than it appears.

Disney's Honey, I Shrunk the Kids reboot won't include a Rick Moranis return, despite a rumor to the contrary.

Didn't see this coming!

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid, and while Josh Gad has been developing a sequel for the better part of the past year, it has been unclear who would direct the Disney movie -- until now. In an inspired move, Disney is bringing back original director Joe Johnston to direct Shrunk, which will find Gad playing the son of Wayne Szalinski, the scientist played by Rick Moranis in the 1989 classic. The project brings Johnston's career full circle, as he actually made his feature directorial debut with Honey, I Shrunk …

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids director Joe Johnston is returning to helm Disney's upcoming movie sequel-reboot, Shrunk, with Josh Gad starring.

The adventures of the Szalinski family continue!

Disney’s reboot of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids will reportedly star Josh Gad, and will take place in the same universe as the original films starring Rick Moranis.
