Deadline is reporting the news that Warner Bros. will be partnering with Charlie and Willie Ebersol (Ithuteng: Never Stop Learning) to create a sequel to the classic 90s movie, Space Jam. The brotherly duo will split producing and writing duties and word is the film is already in the early stages of development. This time around we will be having a new lead in the form of the Miami Heat’s LeBron James who will be staring alongside Bug Bunny and gang. We can assume, like in the first film, that LeBron will be joined by several other current NBA players making various cameos in the film.
No word on if Bill Murray will come back for another go, or if R. Kelly still believes he can fly.
Update 2/21 9:07pm: Sources for LeBron are refuting the Deadline article the he will be playing the lead in Space Jam 2.
