There are things that I always thought I would write about and things I wouldn’t. Space Jam is definitely one of those things I never thought that I would be writing about. But hey – I did love the first movie as a kid (until I had to watch it 5000 times with my little brother).
In today’s reboot culture, it’s no shock that we’re getting more. And hey, who is better to star in it than King James? The original starred Michael Jordan, and Lebron James definitely can fill those shoes.
“LET’S GO!!!!! @spacejammovie coming at y’all in just a few months from now! I’m so EXCITED about this project!!! CAN NOT WAIT FOR YOU GUYS TO SEE! 😱🐰🥕👑 @thespringhillco #TunesVsTheWorld #ThekidfromAKRON🤴🏾” LeBron captioned the Instagram post.
Lebron won’t be the only basketball player in the movie. Also making an appearance will be Klay Thompson, Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard, Chris Paul, and Kyle Kuzma.
Space Jam: A New Legacy is scheduled to be released on HBO Max and in theaters on July 16, 2021.
