Miguel A. Núñez Jr. Says A ‘Juwanna Mann’ Sequal Is In The Works & NBA Star Draymond Green Has Expressed Interest In Appearing In The Film

Exciting news for “Juwanna Mann” fans!

Recently, Miguel A. Núñez Jr., who’s known for his leading role in “Juwanna Mann,” revealed that a sequel to the romantic-comedy movie is in the works. Miguel A. Núñez Jr. announced:

“We are doing a ‘Juwanna Mann 2.’”

The actor didn’t give away any key details about the upcoming film, but he did address concerns some may have over the premise of the first “Juwanna Mann.” For those who may be unaware, the original “Juwanna Mann” centers around a man who pretends to be a woman so he can get further in his basketball career.
According to Miguel A. Núñez Jr., “issues now” won’t keep the film from being made. He continued and said that the WNBA and members of the LGBTQ+ community supported the first film and will more than likely embrace the second installment.

“Absoutely, 100%. They [supported] the first one, they would definitely do it for this one.”

During his chat with TMZ, Miguel, 63, shared that he has no plans on starring in the sequel but he may make an appearance in a supporting role, possibly as a coach. He also dished on the celebs who have reached out about having a part in the film and shared that a certain Golden State Warriors player is interested in acting in the movie.

“Draymond Green, I talked to him, he wants to be in it as well.”

“Juwanna Mann” debuted in movie theaters on June 21, 2002. The film focuses on Jamal Jeffries (played by Miguel), a pro-basketball player who isn’t ready to walk away from the game due to a lengthy suspension. His obsession with the sport leads him to suit up as a woman for the WNBA. As he helps his new team climb the ranks, Jamal Jeffries realizes he has feelings for team captain Michelle (played by Vivica A. Fox).
