During a chat with the star ball player during NBA All-Star weekend, Lebron James confirmed that he will take over the lead role that Michael Jordan did in the original 1996 kids movie called "Space Jam".

The original movie was not much of a hit within the black community due to the renowned racist nature of Walt Disney the man and his entire staff, however it did get support from the greater white group. With the spate of open racism since trumpism began in 2014, the reaction from the non-white community may very well be the same for this production.
