This year has been quite eventful for the Los Angeles Lakers‘ superstar, LeBron James, and there is still a lot more coming up. The Lakers won their 17th NBA Championship after a decade, and it wouldn’t have been possible without James. The GOAT has easily conquered the world of sports, and now it’s time that he makes his debut into the world of entertainment.

Can you think of any other player who made his entry into Hollywood? Yes, it’s the legendary Michael Jordan, who starred in the famous ‘Space Jam’ movie. This is an animated sports comedy with Looney Toons included. Not only did this film become widely popular, but now, LeBron James is starring in its sequel.

James has a gigantic fan base and there is no doubt that this movie is going to be a big hit. However, there might be a major setback to its release. As of now, the release date is July 16, 2021, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s possible that theaters may not open. So either the release date could be pushed forward or the film might only be released on HBO.
