There’s no denying that “Independence Day” is one of the most iconic and patriotic movies that ever came out of Hollywood.
For that reason alone, its long-awaited sequel will be welcomed with open arms when it hits the theaters in 2016.
20th Century Fox summed up the plot in a press release: “Using recovered alien technology, the nations of Earth have collaborated on an immense defense program to protect the planet.
But nothing can prepare us for the aliens’ advanced and unprecedented force. Only the ingenuity of a few brave men and women can bring our world back from the brink of extinction.”
Although Will Smith won’t be reprising his role from the first movie, we’re still going to see Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman return to theirs, as well as some new faces like Liam Hemsworth and Maika Monroe.
Release date: May 22nd
