Action superstar Jackie Chan is in negotiations to star in a sequel to 1996's animation/live-action film Space Jam. The sequel will not have the basketball theme, but instead offer a kid-friendly, James Bond-like storyline. The tenative title for the follow-up is Spy Jam.

Warner Bros. is reportedly also considering a NASCAR themed sequel, most likely titled 'Race Jam'. Apparently the studio is trying to build a franchise out of the blockbuster hit with Michael Jordan.

Ten bucks says a Bugs Bunny flick with football theme is also on Warner's drawing board. Let's just hope they don't call it 'Toe Jam'.
