Luther Vandross was outed as gay after his death.

If you’re of a certain age you may remember the unapologetically silly Police Academy movies — a comedy series which dominated the 1980s.

Now, rumor has it, Comedy Central stars  Keegan Michael Key and Jordan Peele may produce a repeat of the beloved franchise.

According to Variety, New Line Cinema wants to reboot the films, nearly all of which starred Steve Guttenberg and featured Bubba Smith and Michael Winslow in supporting roles.

Winslow, whose character Sgt. Larvelle “Motor Mouth” Jones famously used vocal sound effects to play pranks and fool his foes, was a particular fan favorite.

No word yet on whether he, or any of the original stars, will be back for a new iteration.
