Actress Sonequa Martin-Green, best known for roles on The Walking Dead and Star Trek: Discovery, has been cast as the female lead, opposite Lebron James, in the 2021 sequel to Space Jam. The film is being referred to as Space Jam 2 but doesn't actually have an official title yet.
Details on the sequel are scarce, but LeBron is expected to play a similar role to Michael Jordan, who teamed up with Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and a host of other Looney Toons All-Stars in 1996 to defeat the invading MonStars in a winner-take-all game of basketball.
Space Jam 2 is set to hits theaters on July 16, 2021. LeBron should have plenty of time for filming as his Los Angeles Lakers were recently eliminated from the NBA Playoffs.
