They actually got Rick Moranis - he really has come out of his retirement/exile.

Exile??? What did this widower do to be exiled??
Exile can be self-imposed. Nothing sinister intended.
Losing a spouse and choosing to focus on raising your kids when you have the financial resources seems a value-based choice.
Martin Short, another Canadian comedian of the same generation, also stopped working for many years when his wife died in 2010.
His return to work in Only Murders in the Building has been enormously successful - and has reportedly led to a romantic attachment with Meryl Streep who also lost a spouse to cancer and had a hiatus in work.
One has to wish Moranis similar professional and personal success.
