We will be 110% honest with you – we’ve been hyping this for a while.
We had it on good word that ‘Space Jam 2’ was definitely happening in 2014. And then again in 2015. And we’re sorry, because neither of those actually ended up happening.
You can tell us off all you like, but be honest with yourself – you are just as excited and would be just as trigger-happy over a ‘Space Jam‘ sequel as we are.
But now, we have good news – we have concrete news. Not just rumours anymore, champions.
‘Space Jam 2’ is happening, and it has a director. Justin Lin is in talks to do the second movie, which will star NBA superstar LeBron James.
The rumours have been flowing about James’ involvement ever since he and his company SpringHill Entertainment signed an undisclosed contract with Warner Bros. last year.
Lin is best known for the ‘Fast & The Furious’ franchise, and is currently in post-production on ‘Star Trek Beyond’.
He is said to be also co-writing the script along with Andrew Dodge and Alfredo Botello.
But, ahem…
