The rumors have been swirling for years, but now it’s apparently happening … “Space Jam 2” is in the works — starring LeBron James.
Producers of the long-awaited sequel to the 1996 partially-animated classic are already in talks with Justin Lin — of “Fast and Furious 6” fame to direct … according to Variety.
The original “Space Jam” — starring Michael Jordan — shot to #1 when it opened back in the day and went on to become the highest grossing basketball movie ever (at that time) making $230 MILLION worldwide.
No word on when the flick is expected to hit theaters.
