Space Jam: A New Legacy release date and time
Space Jam: A New Legacy debuts in theaters and on HBO Max starting July 16. It starts streaming on HBO Max at 3 a.m. ET / 12 a.m. PT, and leaves in 31 days.
It’s almost time to slam now, as we watch Space Jam: A New Legacy online (or in theaters) this week. We at Tom’s Guide are more likely to take the former, since it’s so easy to do. So make like LeBron James and company and get digital to join us watching the long-rumored sequel that’s finally coming out. And to get this question out of the way: yes, they’re not going to space — they’re going to cyberspace. It’s still a Space Jam.
This time around, though, we’ve swapped MJ out for LeBron James, who has had time on his hands ever since his Lakers got eliminated from the NBA playoffs. And Space Jam 2 should take his mind off that court, as he enters a virtual one. In Space Jam 2: A New Legacy, LeBron and his son Dom (Cedric Joe) somehow get trapped in the … Warner 3000 Server-Verse. Yes, if you were wondering that is how all the Warner Media characters — including The Mask, Pennywise the clown from IT and Voldemort — appear in the movie.
And instead of fighting against the Monstars, LeBron and the Looney Tunes gang will be squaring off against Al-G Rhythm (Don Cheadle) — a diabolical and renegade piece of artificial intelligence. But much like the Monstars, Rhythm’s got his own team of superstar athletes who form the Goon Squad.
Hilariously, they’re all voiced by basketball superstars. Klay Thompson voices the hot-and-cold Wet-Fire, LeBron’s teammate Anthony Davis voices The Brow, Damian Lillard voices the speedy Chronos, Diana Taurasi voices White Mamba and Nneka Ogwumike voices the spider-like Arachnneka.

Space Jam: A New Legacy reviews
You don’t need to have a high hoops IQ to see that this movie is definitely not going to be a critics’ darling. It’s currently got a 56% on Rotten Tomatoes (based on 9 reviews, which are all from Australia and New Zealand).
The nicest thing the critics had to say came from Graeme Tuckett at Stuff.co.nz, writing “There is a very real sense that Space Jam: A New Legacy is a love-letter to the movies and to the people who make them.” The funniest, and least family-friendly line comes from Wenlei Ma at News.com.au, writing “It’s hard to not feel like you’ve been swimming in some WB marketing executive’s wet dream for two hours.”
