In a resurfaced clip from the shoot of ?Playground?, Zack Snyder can be seen passionately explaining a ?scene? to the 6x NBA champion. The Chicago Bulls legend listens to the young director with patience and focus before shooting for the ?scene?. Clearly, Michael Jordan knew what he was doing. He understood the concept of working within a team for the best result.

The movie followed a fantasy storyline about a high-school teenager named Walt, who is cut from his basketball team. Walt gets lessons from Michael Jordan himself in a magical playground called the Michael Jordan Playground. This movie was a personal movie for the Chicago Bulls legend because he was cut from his high school basketball team too. The short documentary was a rare insight into the acting prowess of the NBA legend.

There was one ?scene? which Michael Jordan struggled to act in. However, a young Zack Snyder was seen guiding the Chicago Bulls legend through the scene in another resurfaced clip.

When Zack Snyder helped a MJ on the sets of ?Playground?

The 1990?s documentary ?Playground? was Zack Snyder?s directorial debut. He went on to direct some critically acclaimed movies which became big box office hits in Hollywood. Some of his movies are Watchmen, Man of Steel, Justice League, Wonder Woman, Aqua Man, Army of Thieves and many more!

On the sets of ?Playground?, Michael Jordan was so committed to his role as an actor that he didn?t mind dancing in a ?scene?. In the ?scene?, he performs with the hip-hop group, ?Full Force?. Learning to dance with them didn?t come naturally to the Chicago Bulls legend but the young director was there to guide his lead actor through it.

Michael Jordan seemed a little conscious and nervous while rehearsing his steps with his fellow dancers. This was a rare sight as we have only seen the fierce and nonchalant MJ. Irrespective, the ?scene? came out well and Jordan emerged victorious yet again.
