Coneheads 2: Beyond the Cones
Logline: An assimilated alien family is pulled into a new interstellar review when the Zeplak Protocol resurfaces, forcing a next generation raised between Earth and Remulakian identity to decide which world—and which rules—define home.
Project Hook
A warm culture-clash comedy that expands the sequel through family identity, Remulakian history and the Zeplak Protocol rather than through spectacle alone.
