In the 1980s, Rick Moranis experienced great success in the field of comedy, notably through his involvement with Second City Television and his starring roles in movies such as Ghostbusters, Little Shop of Horrors, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, and Parenthood.

However, Moranis has since retired from the entertainment industry. He made the decision to step away from acting and prioritize raising his children as a single, stay-at-home father. Although there have been attempts to entice him back to Hollywood, including two Ghostbusters reboots, Moranis has remained resistant to returning. However, in an unexpected turn of events in 2020, Moranis signed on for a sequel to Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, where he will reprise his role as Wayne Szalinski.
