LeBron James Movie, Space Jam 2 Release Date: LeBron James’ new movie is set to debut in theaters and on HBO Max on July 16. With the release date nearly two months away, two trailers for “Space Jam: A New Legacy″ are now available.
Coming together with a bunch of stars for an event at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Los Angeles last week, LeBron pointed to the family values the movie highlights.
“It’s a great family movie. You get to enjoy being around your family and your loved ones,” the Los Angeles Lakers superstar said.
“That’s what this movie is all about. Hopefully, we bring a lot of laughs and enjoyment and a little bit compassion to a lot of family homes. I think it’s the best movie of the summer and I hope everybody feels the same way.”

The film’s plot involves LeBron needing to win a basketball game against a rogue artificial intelligence in order to rescue his onscreen son and escape a virtual reality.
There’s a scene in the trailer that includes an NBA reference to the iconic photo of LeBron and Dwyane Wade connecting on an alley-oop. Only this time, Lola Bunny is making the assist.

“My character is me. I’m playing LeBron James, but what people are going to see that they may be ready for, it’s my compassion for my kids and listening to my kids, one in particular. Understanding that even though I have my own dreams of what I want my kid to be, they also have their own dreams and I have to listen to that.”
“It’s got iconic heros and figures from our generation updated, the 2.0 version. Obviously LeBron is a big draw and it’s just a big family experience, I think the movie really pays off on a lot of levels. People are going to be really surprised about how good LeBron is in it,” Cheadle said.
“I think another thing this move does a good job with is making sure people are following their dreams and encouraging people to follow their dreams. To listen to that little voice inside of you, everybody has to do what they have to do for themselves and it’s a cool family film in that way and it’s a cool father-son film too.”
