The first photo shared is an Entertainment Weekly magazine cover, featuring James in the middle as the Tune Squad (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety, Tasmanian Devil and Lola Bunny). Another photo is at the Akron Public Schools, where an enlarged image is placed as children pose around it. The other two images appear to be stills from the film.
In one, James is seen mid-shot, probably about to dunk a charged basketball. The last image features James looking to his side, an angry-looking Tweety glaring as he flies at his side. "Y’ALL NOT READY FOR THIS SQUAD," James wrote on his Twitter, even adding bunny, carrot and crown emojis.
