It's been 25 years since Michael Jordan and his Tune Squad took on the evil Monstars in 'Space Jam,' but we're finally getting a new story with a new GOAT for a new generation of fans in 'Space Jam: A New Legacy.' LeBron James suits up in the modernized update as, well, himself as he is transported to a digital realm ruled by an all-powerful A.I. named Al G. Rhythm (Don Cheadle). In order to free his son (Cedric Joe) and return to the real world, LeBron rallies a team of familiar characters -- Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Lola Bunny, and more -- to defeat Al G.'s own digitized Goon Squad. Ahead of the film's release, Rotten Tomatoes correspondent Naz Perez chatted with stars Cheadle, Joe, and Sonequa Martin-Green; voice actors Zendaya and Gabriel Iglesias; and director Malcolm D. Lee about why the original cult classic endures to this day, and what it's like to continue its - ahem - legacy. Plus, the stars reveal who they'd put on their own Goon Squad (Iglesias is a superhero fan, Cheadle wants cheaters) and Zendaya explains how similar the movie is to her own life growing up in a basketball family.
