Space Jam 2 Release Date Announced

Everybody get up, it’s time to slam now – we got a real jam goin’ down. Welcome to the Space Jam. Again. In one the most delightful uses of filmmaker clout in recent memory, Ryan Coogler – fresh from the huge successes of Black Panther, Creed, and Fruitvale Station – has used his powers to fire up a Space Jam sequel, this time set to team the Looney Tunes up with basketball icon LeBron James. Coogler is producing with Terence Nance signed on to direct – and now we know when Space Jam 2 will blast off.

According to SpringHill Entertainment, co-founded by LeBron, the film has nabbed a release date on 16 July 2021. Not only that, but the company Tweeted a fan art mock-up image by NJ Creative Wall with a Space Jam 2 logo, and LeBron standing alongside Bugs and Lola Bunny. If you were a kid when the first film arrived in 1996, prepare for a hit of the purest nostalgia. It’s still early days on the sequel, with no fellow humans yet joining the cast – the original co-starred the likes of Bill Murray (as himself!) and Wayne Knight. Can the follow-up assemble a similar culty cast? Someone try and get hold of Jeff Goldblum? What about Steve Buscemi?
