"To improve Space Jam 2 box office, digitally replace LeBron James with Michael Jordan": NBA Twitter roasts the Lakers star and the sequel's mere $9.56 M box office collection in Week 2

A behind-the-scenes look at LeBron James filming for the “Space Jam: A New Legacy” footage goes viral, a day after the movie’s release.

Earlier this past month, LeBron James suffered his first-ever first-round playoffs exit, in his 18-year career. Clearly, the Los Angeles Lakers didn’t finish their 2020-2021 campaign as they would’ve hoped to.

However, King James hasn’t been beating himself about the Lakers’ failures this season. Instead, Bron has been busier than ever with the promotions of his newly-released “Space Jam: A New Legacy” movie.

Finally, after a lot of hype created throughout the year, the sequel to MJ’s Space Jam movie is now released in most parts of the world. And just hours after the release of his movie, a behind the scenes footage of the set went viral.

Bron has clearly dedicated a lot of time and energy to this project. However, unfortunately, it seems as if fans haven’t been enjoying the movie. Coming in at just 32% on Rotten Tomatoes and 36% on Metacritic, it seems as if Day 1 of the movie’s release is more or less like LBJ’s 2020-2021 season – an unexpected failure.
