When Space Jam: A New Legacy debuts this summer, the original starring basketball player and actor is said to be making an appearance.
During an Access Hollywood interview, Don Cheadle hinted that Michael Jordan will make an appearance in the sequel to the 1996 film.
“Michael Jordan is in the movie but not in the way you’d expect it,” Cheadle said.
As you know, the 6-time NBA champion was the star of the film in which he leads the Looney Tunes characters stars to victory against the Monstars in a basketball game. This time around, LeBron James is playing the lead role as he must navigate “the Serververse” in search of his son , who is held ransom by an evil computer algorithm known as AI G Rhythm.
“Space Jam: A New Legacy” is slated to be released in theaters and on HBO Max on July 16.
