LeBron James To Produce Remake Of Kid "˜N Play's 1990 Classic Comedy House Party

LeBron James is jumping on the reboot craze!

The Cavaliers star and business partner Maverick Carter are producing a new version of the hit 90's film House Party.

The cult comedy features hip-hop duo Kid "˜N Play that debuted in 1990.

James' SpringHill Entertainment production company described the project as a "˜fresh re-imagining' of the original.

The new film is being written by Stephen Glover and Jamal Olori from the FX series "˜Atlanta.'

"˜It's an honor when I got the opportunity to produce it, reboot the whole movie,' James said.

"˜When I was growing up as a youngster I was like, "Man, I hope I get an opportunity to throw one of these house parties, where it's just a lot of fun, a lot of joking around, dancin', people just having a good time".

"˜Everyone I grew up with loved House Party,' he told The Hollywood Reporter.

"˜To partner with this creative team to bring a new House Party to a new generation is unbelievable."

But the 33-year-old noted some of his Cavs teammates might not be too familiar with the original film.

"˜They are too young, I think,' he said of his five teammates under the age of 26. "˜They weren't [born] when it came out.'

He added that he may even make a cameo in the new film himself.

His longtime friend and business partner told the site: "˜We're trying out some ideas for musicians to be cast in and to be a part of the project.'

"˜There's no plan for [LeBron to star] now, but he's a fantastic actor, and if he wants a role, Stephen will find a great role to put him in,' he added.

That same day the NBA superstar scored 37 points as he lead the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers to a  120-112 victory over Oklahoma City Thunder.
