According to Variety, LeBron James will produce and potentially star in a comedy to be penned by The Boss screenwriter Steve Mallory. James’s SpringHill Entertainment has reportedly sold the unnamed film to Paramount Players.
Now, while Variety has no details about the content of the movie in their report, the url for their story does contain the holy words “body swapping comedy.”

The sale comes on the heels of James signing a four-year, $154 million contract to join the Los Angeles Lakers. This is definitely one of the reasons LeBron wanted to call Los Angeles home.
