While basketball fans and movie fans alike remain excited for the sequel of the cult classic film "Space Jam," the reported star of the movie has his sights set elsewhere for the time being.

"I have a great team that handles my affairs off the floor," LeBron James told Fox Sports Ohio. "Since I signed with Warner Bros. we've been looking to do some things and figure out some things that best fit both sides. But my team's handling that and I'm not going to take my focus off what my job is right now, which is handling the postseason right now."

Up 1-0 in their matchup with the Atlanta Hawks, James and Co. will attempt to take a commanding lead in their second-round series with a win on Wednesday.

If James does end up starring in "Space Jam 2," it will mark the second film of his young acting career, playing a role in the comedy "Trainwreck" last summer.
