Alabama native Sonequa Martin-Green will reportedly join LeBron James and a host of other NBA superstars in the highly anticipated “Space Jam 2.”

She’ll play James’ wife, according to Variety. The film is scheduled to open in theaters in July 2021.

Martin-Green and the Los Angeles Laker superstar are in even better company now that, according to Yahoo NBA reporter Shams Charania, more NBA talent will join the sequel. Charania tweeted this week, “Space Jam 2, starring LeBron James, is expected to feature key roles for Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis and Klay Thompson and WNBA stars Diana Taurasi and Nneka Ogwumike. Several more NBA and WNBA players, including Chiney Ogwumike, are expected to play roles in film.”

The Russellville native and University of Alabama alumna’s star continues to shine in Hollywood, earning her first big role in a major motion picture after landing huge gigs on “The Walking Dead” and the starring role on “Star Trek: Discovery.”

Making a little “Trek” history, Martin-Green became the first African-American woman to lead the cast of an ensemble in the franchise.

Martin-Green, a UA theatre veteran who appeared in several campus productions and was a regular performer at Alpha Psi Omega’s Guerrilla Theatre shows, has had a busy past few years. She’s appeared on a slew of popular shows along with “Walking Dead,” including ABC’s popular fantasy series “Once Upon a Time” along with “The Good Wife,” “Army Wives” and “NYC-22.”

She has also since appeared “Lip Sync Battle” (where she defeated “Walking Dead” co-star Lauren Cohan) and “New Girl.”

The 2021 release date will mark 25 years since the Michael Jordan/Looney Tunes cult classic opened in theaters everywhere.
