Teaser Released for SPACE JAM: A NEW LEGACY Gearing Up for Saturday's First Full Trailer
A new teaser has been released for the upcoming sequel film Space Jam: A New Legacy, and when I say teaser, I really mean it. This 14 second video featuring Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote is just long enough to let us know that the first full trailer for the movie will be released on Saturday. Check it out below, and watch the new trailer when it drops.
The film centers on LeBron James and his young son Dom (Cedric Joe) — who dreams of becoming a video game developer — as they find themselves trapped in a virtual space by a rogue AI named Al-G Rhythm (Don Cheadle). This virtual space is the “Warner 3000 entertainment ‘Server-verse,’“ and in order to get back home safely, he must lead Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Lola Bunny and the rest of the undisciplined Looney Tunes to victory over Al-G’s digitized players on the court.
It’s also been explained that when James is sucked into the WB server, he will find himself passing through some of the studio’s most famous films like Mad Max, The Matrix, and more.
The film is being produced by Ryan Coogler and directed by Malcolm D. Lee. The film also stars Star Trek: Discovery's Sonequa Martin-Green who was cast as LeBron's wife, Ceyair Wright who plays the older son Darius, and Harper Leigh Alexander as his daughter Xosha.
Space Jam: A New Legacy is set to hit theaters and HBO Max on July 16th.
