Last year, LeBron James gave his fans a good scare when he dressed up as Jason Voorhees from the classic horror film Friday the 13th. On Halloween, it seems that James’ talents should stick to costume design rather than basketball. The 34-year-old athlete is known for his elaborate Halloween costumes, but this year’s “LeDward Scissorhands” outfit takes the cake. Based on Tim Burton’s iconic character from the 1990 film, James’ costume is sure to impress and make a lasting impression.
James took to Instagram on Thursday to showcase his impressive Halloween costume, which included a leather bodysuit adorned with multiple belts, a frizzy black wig that resembled Edward Scissorhands, and the iconic Scissorhands gloves. His eerie post was accompanied by the caption, “LeDward Scissorhands Happy Halloween beautiful people.” In one picture, James can be seen wearing the full-body costume while staring sternly at the camera, much like Johnny Depp’s portrayal of the character. He also shared a close-up shot, crossing his Scissorhands to highlight all the details of his costume. Within hours, the post garnered around 100,000 likes, with viewers expressing their admiration for his outfit and enthusiasm for the occasion in the comments section.
The LeBron James Family Foundation recently made a statement that said, “Simply a Scissorhand Kid From Akron.” It’s worth noting that James’ foundation is named after him. When questioned, Lakers assistant coach Phil Handy simply replied with an empty response. Jamie Foxx also left a comment, praising the actor with a string of hand motions.
