18 years after the release of the original classic, there’s a little more hope about a sequel to Space Jam coming in the near future. According to a Deadline Hollywood report, Warner Bros. is developing a screenplay for the project as a vehicle for the Miami Heat superstar and four-time MVP.

Charlie Ebersol, who already has a good relationship with the NFL through his NFL Characters Unite series on USA Network, is about ready to do the same with the NBA. He has been brought on to the produce the picture through his production company, The Company, from a script by his brother Willie Ebersol. The latter won an Emmy for the London Olympics. This is his first screenplay.

The original Space Jam, of course, starred Michael Jordan and characters from the Looney Tunes universe. It’s unclear whether the new film will also feature other NBA players the way the original co-starred the likes of Patrick Ewing, Charles Barkley, Shawn Bradley and Muggsy Bogues.

A person with knowledge of the situation told USA TODAY Sports’ Sam Amick that James has had no discussions about participating in any Space Jam sequels. A request for comment from For The Win to a Warner Bros. spokesperson was not immediately returned.

If the project does eventually come to pass, it won’t be the only film project James has on his plate. In December, it was revealed that he was set to co-star with Kevin Hart in a new film called Ballers.

There’s conflicting reports about whether Space Jam 2 will happen, but that didn’t stop Twitter users from having a lot of plot ideas for the flick.

Space Jam 2 is where LeBron James saves Michael Jordan from his imprisonment on an alien planet for not paying his alien gambling debts — Bill Barnwell (@billbarnwell) February 22, 2014

It’s so weird that Space Jam 2 is about LeBron helping Bugs recover from his and Lola Bunny’s divorce. — Jack Moore (@JackPMoore) February 22, 2014
