We finally have a plot summary for Space Jam 2, and you know what? Sounds pretty good!
Why am I so surprised? Well, the original was a lot of fun, but how do you get LeBron James to do so well or better than Michael Jordan with Bugs and the Tune Squad?
The answer is: don’t try to do what the original did and try something similar but new, just like the new uniforms we saw earlier this year.
Here is the summary, which was part of a link to Microsoft (see below) that was released Monday:
In this film, basketball champion and world icon LeBron James has an epic adventure alongside the timeless Tune Bugs Bunny. When James and his little son Dom, who dreams of being a video game developer, are trapped in a digital space by a rogue AI, James has to get them home with the safety of Bugs, Lola Bunny and the whole gang. Looney Tunes, famous and undisciplined. victory over digitized AI champions on the court: a list of driven basketball stars like you’ve never seen them before.
James and Bugs promoted the new film on Instagram and the link with Microsoft and Xbox, in which fans can present their own ideas for a Space Jam: a new legacy video game. Two winning ideas will turn into arcade-style games and win lots of prizes.
