Rounding out LeBron’s 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥hood ‘Fab Five’ are actors Avery S. Willis Jr. and Khalil Everage, who are playing Willie McGee and Sian Cotton, respectively.

After a screening in New York City last week, director Chris Robinson said that LeBron and his friends ‘loved’ a rough cut of the film.

The filmmaker declared: ‘They got the rough cut on the computer and [McGee] said that all of the real Fab Five, LeBron, Anthony Davis and a couple other guys from the Lakers were all huddled around a little computer, watched the whole movie because LeBron couldn’t cast it to his TV.

‘He said that LeBron loved it. They loved it. So when the real guys loved it, that was good enough for me.’

While LeBron’s prodigal talent anchors the film, Shooting Stars also focuses on the trajectories of his friends, who all went on to have impressive athletic careers even though they were overshadowed by one of the greatest sports figures of all time. 

Speaking about Lil Dru Joyce III, Robinson said: ‘How is it to be the best friend of somebody who even your father is paying more attention to than you?’
