Deadline just reported that Warner Brothers is currently in development for a sequel to the 1996 live-action/animated film Space Jam.
The film will be written and produced by the sons of broadcasting veteran Dick Ebersol. Charlie Ebersol will produce the project and his brother Willie Ebersol, a former Emmy winner will be developing and writing the script. This is the latter Ebersol’s first screenplay.
The sequels predecessor starred famed basketball player Michael Jordan as the lead. The premise of the film was that Michael Jordan agreed to help the Looney Toons play a basketball game vs. alien slavers to determine their freedom. Along with Jordan the film included other famed NBA players such as, Larry Bird, Patrick Ewing, Charles Barkley, Danny Ainge, Tyron “Muggsy” Bogues, Vlade Divac, Cedric Ceballos, Larry Johnson, Shawn Bradley and Paul West.
Space Jam grossed $230 million at the box office. A number which Space Jam 2 will aim to pass. But at what cost? Probably your childhood.
The sequel will likely follow in the footsteps of the original and feature many current NBA players.
The only question I must ask is, "Are Ya'll Ready For This?"
