Last month, he declared that he would be transforming his Carpool Karaoke segment into a series of comedic sketches. In the teaser, he and Will Smith were shown riding in a helicopter.

In his most recent comedy, James Corden requested LeBron James’ assistance in fending off ninjas, continuing his amusing and occasionally absurd antics on Tuesday.

As they menacingly posed back-to-back and prepared to face their warrior opponents for the new footage, the 32-year-old NBA star was spotted towering over the 38-year-old program host.

Not your usual outfit for a karate lesson, the Cleveland Cavaliers player looked dapper in a pale blue suit jacket with slim camel tracksuit trousers and classy black brogues.

Trying to pull off the ‘tough guy’ appearance in his typical clever manner, James chose to pair a black leather jacket with trousers and loafers instead.

To reinforce their team image as a crime-fighting unit, both individuals wore matching neck plaques that identified them as police officers as they prepared for the upcoming assignment.

The video was interesting right away because of the stars’ stark height differences as they approached their opponents, standing menacingly back to back. 

Following a series of stances and martial arts postures, the ninjas advanced, and LeBron abruptly disappeared, leaving James to humorously fight off his assailants on his own.
