Rick Moranis starred in the cult classic Honey, I Shrunk the Kids as scientist Wayne Szalinski, who accidentally shrinks his children down to the size of insects.
Early reports suggest that Gad’s character will be the son of Szalinski and will follow in the footsteps of his scientist father - shrinking his own children.
