When Lola’s new appearance in Space Jam: A New Legacy came out, it received a lot of backlash from the side of viewers. The director of the film, Malcolm D. Lee talked about the matter and he stated that his aim was to make a “fully realized Lola”

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Malcolm said, “This is 2021. It’s important to reflect the authenticity of strong, capable female characters. She probably has the most human characteristics of the Tunes; she doesn’t have a thing like a carrot or a lisp or a stutter.”

D. Lee further added, “So we reworked a lot of things, not only her look, like making sure she had an appropriate length on her shorts and was feminine without being objectified, but gave her a real voice. For us, it was, let’s ground her athletic prowess, her leadership skills, and make her as full a character as the others.”
