There’s not much that can be said in the way of complements for Space Jam: A New Legacy, in fact I can’t think of a single thing the film has going in its favour.
25 years since its first instalment the Looney Tunes are back playing basketball. This time around artificial intelligence (played by Don Cheadle) kidnaps Dom James (Cedric Joe), the son of famed basketball player LeBron James, who then has to work with Bugs Bunny to win a basketball game.
It’s never nice to sit through a film and know as soon as it ends you’ll have to...

Space Jam was one of the most iconic movies of the '90s, and now diehard fans of the original movie have been blessed with a sequel, Space Jam: A New Legacy, which was released on July 16. Basketball legend Michael Jordan and the Looney Tunes gang were central to the original movie, and for the reboot, NBA star LeBron James has taken up the mantle as intergalactic sports star.
In Space Jam: A New Legacy, James - and an impressive cast including Cassandra Starr, Kyrie Irving, Zendaya, and Don Cheadle - and his son Dom battle an evil artificial-intelligence system that has trapped them in a game. To make it back home, they have to enlist the help of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and the Looney Tunes gang. Although his onscreen family play a major role in the film, viewers have been wondering if the movie's stars are actually related to James in real life.

It seems that LeBron James and the cast of Space Jam: A New Legacy really took "come on and slam, and welcome to the jam" to heart for the film's LA premiere on July 12. While Zendaya stole the show with her Lola Bunny-inspired look on the purple carpet, LeBron adorably showed off wife Savannah and daughter Zhuri as his plus-ones. The basketball star also took a moment to spend time with his onscreen Space Jam family - Sonequa Martin-Green, Cedric Joe, Ceyair J. Wright, and Harper Leigh Alexander - before managing to get in a hug with Don Cheadle. And yes, both Bugs and Lola Bunny made an in-person appearance, proving that you don't need Al-g Rhythm and the serververse to get Looney Tunes. You can catch LeBron and crew in action when the film premieres in theaters and on HBO Max on July 16. See more pictures from the premiere ahead.
