Warner Bros. has uploaded the official trailer for the live-action/animation hybrid film Space Jam: A New Legacy [SJAM2], the highly anticipated anticipated sequel to Space Jam starring Michael Jordan. LeBron James [LBJAM] stars as himself who gets sucked into the Matrix of the Warner Bros. computer server where he meets Bugs Bunny and the rest of the Looney Tunes as well as a host of other Warner Bros. Intellectual Properties. Ready Player LeBron? Directed by Malcolm D. Lee [MDLEE], Space Jam: A New Legacy hits theaters and HBO Max simultaneously on July 16th.
This transformational journey is a manic mashup of two worlds that reveals just how far some parents will go to connect with their kids. When LeBron and his young son Dom are trapped in a digital space by a rogue A.I., LeBron must get them home safe by leading Bugs, Lola Bunny and the whole gang of notoriously undisciplined Looney Tunes to victory over the A.I.’s digitized champions on the court: a powered-up roster of professional basketball stars as you’ve never seen them before. It’s Tunes versus Goons in the highest-stakes challenge of his life, that will redefine LeBron’s bond with his son and shine a light on the power of being yourself. The ready-for-action Tunes destroy convention, supercharge their unique talents and surprise even “King” James by playing the game their own way.
