Lebron James is set to put his stamp on a 90s movie classic.

The NBA star is producing a remake of the 1990 comedy “House Party,” The Hollywood Reporter reported on Tuesday. James’ SpringHill Entertainment production company described the project as a “fresh re-imagining” of the original. The new film is bring written by Stephen Glover and Jamal Olori from the FX series “Atlanta”.

"It's an honor when I got the opportunity to produce it, reboot the whole movie," James said Tuesday in Oklahoma City. "When I was growing up as a youngster I was like, `Man, I hope I get an opportunity to throw one of these house parties, where it's just a lot of fun, a lot of joking around, dancin', people just having a good time."'

The original movie starred Hip-Hop duo Kid ‘n Play and centered around a high school student who throws a house party while his parents are on vacation. The film went on to have two sequels.
