There hasn’t been much sports to look forward to in 2020, but at least we know that 2021 will bring Space Jam 2 (which still isn’t exactly sports, but I’ll allow it).
The LeBron James-led sequel to Michael Jordan’s 1996 film is set for release next year, and on Thursday, LeBron offered a glimpse at the movie’s actual name and logo.
LeBron took to social media and posted a video of him wearing a Space Jam cap. The name won’t be “Space Jam 2,” as many expected, but instead, it will go buy the title, Space Jam: A New Legacy. LeBron and Bugs Bunny are billed as the leading stars.

Filming for the reimagined sequel took place last year with Klay Thompson, Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard and Diana Taurasi among the players expected to appear in the movie.
