Basketball superstar LeBron James widely known as King James extended his kingdom from basketball to entertainment last Wednesday. James' entertainment company Springhill declared a production partnership with Warner Bros. to generate content for television, film and digital platforms. Word of the deal instantly sparked hearsay that it could mean that "Space Jam 2" could be in the works. The original 1996 "Space Jam," starring Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny, still has a cult-like following. A Warner Bros. spokesperson, however, had no comment.
It won't be his first entertainment journey he presently stars in the movie "Trainwreck." He had set up the SpringHill Entertainment Company in 2013 with a business partner. In announcing the arrangement, James said that "telling meaningful stories have always been my passion."
