LeBron Space Jam A New Legacy Character Poster

It's been nearly 25 since Space Jam entered the scene as a family comedy, albeit a bit silly but fun and well-done live-action blended with animation and visual effects. I remember really liking this movie in my younger years and it had some of my husband's basketball idols in it. But the torch is being passed to a new generation.

Welcome to the Jam, kids. NBA champion LeBron James goes on an epic adventure alongside Bugs Bunny in the animated/live-action event Space Jam: A New Legacy. This journey is a manic mash-up of two worlds that reveals just how far some parents will go to connect with their kids.

When LeBron and his son Dom are trapped in a digital space by a rogue A.I., LeBron must get them home safely 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. Space Jam: A New Legacy bounces into theatres and on HBOMax July 16th.

In case you're nostalgic for the 1996 original Space Jam, don't worry. The original website for the movie is still preserved in its original, now hilariously outdated form for your viewing pleasure.

As we often do on trailer day, we got some vivid new character posters for the movie, too. Here are a few of the new ones just released.

About Space Jam: A New Legacy

Welcome to the Jam! NBA champion and global icon LeBron James goes on an epic adventure alongside timeless Tune Bugs Bunny with the animated/live-action event “Space Jam: A New Legacy,” from director Malcolm D. Lee and an innovative filmmaking team including Ryan Coogler and Maverick Carter. This transformational journey is a manic mash-up 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.
