If you loved the first Space Jam, you may want to know how to watch Space Jam 2 for free to relive your childhood and see if LeBron James or Bugs Bunny is the better baller.

The original Space Jam premiered in 1996 and starred Michael Jordan as himself. The movie, which was a mix of of live-action and animation, told the fictional account of what happened between Jordan’s retirement from the NBA in 1993 and his comeback in 1995. During that time, Jordan is recruited by the Looney Tunes to help them win a basketball game against a group of aliens who plan to trap them as attractions for their theme park.

The film, which grossed more than $250 million worldwide and became the highest-grossing basketball movie of all time, led to a sequel in 2021 starring LeBron James. The sequel, titled Space Jam: A New Legacy, follows James as he teams up with the Looney Tunes to win a basketball game against a team of digitized champions to rescue his son from Al-G Rhythm, an evil computer AI. Don Cheadle stars as AI-G, while Cedric Joe stars as Lebron’s fictional younger son. The voice cast includes Jeff Berman as Bugs Bunny, Eric Bauza as Daffy Duck and Zendaya as Lola Bunny.

“Working with him was a dream come true. He was always my favorite player growing up, and getting to be in the same place as him was mind-blowing,” Joe told Screenrant of working with James. “Some of the things that surprised me were, for one, his acting. And then seeing how he was as a person, seeing how cool he was and how comfortable he made everyone feel; making it easy for everyone to work with him. And realizing that he is human.”
