Audio Of LeBron James’ Heartfelt Speech to Space Jam 2 Cast and Crew Has Been Leaked
About 23 years ago, the greatest basketball movie in history, Space Jam, was released.
As we know, LeBron James will be the next star to aid Bugs Bunny and his fellow Looney Toon comrades in a “Space Jam” sequel, that is supposed to premiere next year.
When Space Jam: A New Legacy ended production, LeBron James addressed the crew and cast, explaining the significance of him taking the lead, in an extremely heartfelt speech.
TMZ obtained the audio footage:
“I’m gonna be honest completely with you guys — when I found out about the project, I was like it’s ‘Space Jam’! It’s a movie that I grew up watching. People in the movie that I idolize. I was like absolutely, I gotta do it. There’s no way I can turn down ‘Space Jam’!”
“I’m just a small kid from Akron, Ohio. From a single parent household. I’m the only child, my mother had absolutely nothing. She was walking around high school when she was 16 years old and she was pregnant with me as a high school sophomore. So, I’m really not supposed to be here.”
“Growing up in the inner city, as an African-American kid, there’s no way you’re supposed to f*cking make it out. And, the fact that I’m who I am as an African-American adult now with 3 kids of my own, and I made it out of the situations that I was in. This sh*t is like extra credit for me man.”
