Lola Bunny Has a New Look for 'Space Jam 2' & The Director Is Explaining the Change
One of the biggest trending topics on Twitter on Thursday (March 4) was “Lola Bunny” after the Space Jam character’s new look for the upcoming sequel was revealed.
New photos from the upcoming movie Space Jam: A New Legacy, which will star LeBron James and the cast of Looney Tunes characters, were debuted in Entertainment Weekly‘s new issue.
In the first movie, Lola had a voluptuous figure and wore a crop top and short shorts as her basketball uniform. In the sequel, her breasts will not be as prominent and she’s wearing a full length jersey.
“This is 2021,” director Malcolm D. Lee told EW. “It’s important to reflect the authenticity of strong, capable female characters.”
Lee said he was caught off guard by how Lola was “very sexualized” in the first movie, so he decided to rework her look.

"Certain body types aren't inherently sexual or unsexual" and the "OG Lola Bunny design was hypersexualized" can exist in the same space if we understand that sexualization in character design involves more than shape but l costume, acting, etc. pic.twitter.com/3tczjFNvat

If you can’t get off to the new Lola Bunny that is an indictment of your imagination my friend.

I would have supported the Lola Bunny character design change in the past but the pandemic and ensuing lockdown have forever altered my values. Make every character 1000000x hornier effective immediately

Will Space Jam 2 take the Sonic Movie approach and bow to fan pressure, delaying production a year & forcing animators to crunch to make Lola Bunny's design much much hornier

first they take Lola Bunny’s breasts, what’s next? Elmo’s pendulous red cock and balls?

Coincidentally, I always wanted to write a "Space Jam" musical in which there was a song about Lola sung by the rest of the characters called "I Wanna Titty Fuck That Bunny"
