Playground, a forgettable 1990 short film by Zack Snyder, came before his work on the DC Extended Universe. The 40-minute direct-to-video film included a cast of sportsmen, including Michael Jordan, the standout player for the Chicago Bulls at the time. After pre-championship Jordan's work coaching kids and serving as a general role model, Snyder made his feature film debut. Snyder would remember Jordan as a natural in front of the camera when he was younger. In fact, Jordan was so dedicated to realising Zack's vision that he performed a little jig for the film. Fans' comments have been prompted by the video of His Airness practising the dance that has leaked.
