The upcoming flick is a stand-alone sequel to the 1996 film Space Jam which starred Michael Jordan alongside the Looney Tunes.

The movie is bankrolled by James along with Ryan Coogler, Maverick Carter and Duncan Henderson.

On June 8, 2021, a new poster of Space Jam 2 was released on the social media pages of the movie.

The movie will release in theatres on July 16, 2021, and will be followed by an OTT release on HBO Max, soon after.

Just a day later, the makers dropped a new trailer for the movie, which centres around LeBron James and his on-screen son Dominic James, who has to win a basketball match against a group of digitized champions on the court, who are known as the Goon Squad and are virtually created by a rogue, named Al-G Rhythm played by Don Cheadle.

The new trailer’s description reads, “NEW TRAILER ALERT! LeBron James and the Tune Squad only have one shot to win the highest stakes game of their lives. Watch them battle it out on the court against the Goon Squad in Space Jam: A New Legacy in theatres and HBO Max – July 16. #SpaceJamMovie”. Space Jam’s ensemble cast will also include Khris Davis, Sonequa Martin-Green, Cedric Joe, Jeff Bergman, Eric Bauza and Zendaya, playing or voicing pivotal characters. NBA players Kyrie Irving, Chris Paul, Draymond Green, and Kyle Kuzma will also be seen making cameo appearances in the movie.
