Although Space Jam: A New Legacy isn’t supposed to come out until July 16, some footage has already been leaked for the much anticipated film starring Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James.
First Footage for Highly Anticipated ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’ Released by HBO Max
On Saturday, HBO Max released a teaser on Twitter that just happens to show a brief, but exciting snippet of the upcoming hybrid live-action/animated Space Jam 2 film.
At around the 7-second mark is where both LeBron and the infamous Bugs Bunny makes their first appearance. And if you thought this would be a sequel of the original Space Jam, you thought wrong.
“It’s not a sequel,” James clarified. “It’s called Space Jam: A New Legacy, it’s not called Space Jam 2. There will be a basketball game, I’ll say that. And there will be some people that are a little out of this world that we’re competing against.”
This year, the biggest Warner Bros. premieres are coming to theaters and streaming on HBO Max the exact same day. What movie are you most excited for? 🍿 https://t.co/6Ny7n8JUGk pic.twitter.com/UEMmDlMIy6
