Film director Spike Lee announced today that he plans to shoot a feature-length documentary about Michael Jordan’s last two years in the NBA, using unseen footage of MJ’s 2001-2002 and 2002-2003 seasons with the Washington Wizards.

Lee, already an out-of-the-closet Jordan sneaker freak who played Mars Blackmon in past Nike commercials, promises the movie won’t be another “fluff piece” that looks back at “His Airness’s” life on and off the court. He hopes the movie will make it into next years Cannes film festival. To see Spike talking about his relationship with Jordan and his 1 of 1 Spizike’s check his video interview with Complex after the jump.

Michael Jordan Commercial Takes The Blame

Back in January, Jordan Brand launched their latest marketing movement with their Become Legendary campaign, a set of inspirational commercials that kicked off with the release of the XX3. The latest to hit the tube is this “Maybe It’s My Fault” spot, and has Michael Jordan schooling the youth, on possible misconceptions of his storied career. No cameos from Spike Lee or Bugs Bunny, but a slew of depressing shots of an empty locker room, and a ran down playground court set to the tune of MJ’s monotone narration makes this memorable.

After some research, it was evident that the now defunct governor chose his jersey number wisely, and was inspired by athletes past and present like Ted Williams and Tony Romo. Check out the other pros who’ve worn #9 when it came time to score.
