Space Jam was an iconic movie in every respect. Not only did it successfully merge live-action sports drama with animation, but it also became a cult classic that remained the highest-grossing basketball film of all time until 2022. It also featured the legendary sportsman, Michael Jordan in the leading role.
There are so many things about the movie that are noteworthy but one thing that still makes it a top-tier watch is its soundtrack. The movie had one of the most iconic soundtracks of all time, which even peaked at No. 2 on the US Billboard 200 and was certified double platinum in January 1997. Just four years later, the album was certified 6× platinum.
The music department in the movie was led by James Newton Howard and six of the songs featured in the movie were released as singles. This included R. Kelly's famous I Believe I Can Fly, among many others.

What is Space Jam all about?
Space Jam is a live-action animated sports movie directed by Joe Pytka and written by Leo Benvenuti, Steve Rudnick, Timothy Harris, and Herschel Weingrod. The film features an interesting blend of real-life and cartoon elements and also uses a hybrid form of storytelling.

The synopsis for the movie reads:
"After Michael Jordan's retirement, he is abducted by Bugs Bunny from the Looney Tunes group and is asked to play a match to defeat the Nerdlucks, a criminal alien group led by Swackhammer."
The movie also starred Wayne Knight, Theresa Randle, Charles Barkley, Muggsy Bogues, Shawn Bradley, Patrick Ewing, and Larry Johnson. In addition to this, the movie also featured a stellar voice cast, which included Billy West, Dee Bradley Baker, Danny DeVito, and Bob Bergen, among many others.
