Space Jam, the 1996 live-action/animation hybrid film starring NBA legend Michael Jordan and the Looney Tunes, was birthed out of a Nike ad campaign. The upcoming sequel, Space Jam: A New Legacy, was seemingly birthed out of a collective nostalgia for that original movie, and the desire to give current NBA legend LeBron James a starring role to match his on-court hero. Are you ready for some Tunes versus Goons action? Because the first trailer has arrived, and you can watch it below.

Ladies and gentlemen, they’ve finally done it: they’ve made a sequel to Space Jam. Will the nostalgia for 1990s be satiated by the time the end credits roll? Probably not! And here’s a horrifying thought: what if an entire generation grows up with nostalgia for Space Jam: A New Legacy, a movie in which LeBron and his son find themselves trapped in the Warner 3000 entertainment “Server-verse?” Granted, that likely won’t happen – or at least, not at the same scale as the first film, since entertainment options have become exponentially fractured since 1996.
Malcolm D.Lee directs Space Jam: A New Legacy, and you can read the official synopsis below:
Space Jam: A New Legacy will arrive on HBO Max and in theaters on July 16, 2021.
