20th Century Fox Sequel is working for a sequel to Roland Emmerich's Independence Day, in fact, Emmerich and Fox even spilled the beans that they were working on more than one sequel to the hit alien invasion hit, There have been numerous rumors circulating around, like which actors will return, what actors may join the series, and how the film will further explore the ID4 alien mythology, However as Fox kept on arranging the release of Independence Day 2, The delay is never impossible for the movie.
In the latest months, Fox ordered for a re-write of the original script for the follow-up in addition the arranging of the release of the said film yet again. Gladly, Fox took an intense step forward in the gradual process of Independence Day 2 (with a tentative title of ID Forever).
Deadline reported that Fox has given Independence Day 2 an official lime light and that the project will take the shape of a single Independence Day movie sequel rather than two-part follow-up to the original, Its production will start in May 2015 in order to be ready for its tentative release date of June 2016. Next, the studio will have a glance to secure Emmerich directing skills for Independence day. Lastly, the casting will also star.
As previously reported, Will Smith, the lead srar of the said movie, is quite not expected to be the the lead for the sequel but both Jeff Goldbium and Bill Pullman whill have their roles reprised, In addition to Emmerich's return behind the camera, Dean Devlin, the writer and producer of Independence Day, contributed to the original script and will have a comeback as a producer.
Independence Day 2 seemed to officially join the list of upcoming installments in rebooted/revitalized science-fiction action movies of '80s and '90s, a list that includes Jurassic World, Terminator Genisys, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens, it might be quite exciting for the movie-goers, especially for the supporters of Independence Day, as well as these other seriesm to see some of the actors opted fot a return to their respective characters and revisit the world the first movie made.
Having been said hat, Independence Day 2 seems to be the least in the felt want for a sequel while he Jurassic Park, Terminator, and Star Wars films made exciting set of universe where numerous stories can be told, Independence Day was more of a self-reserved story: the alien invasion and ots defeat. The aspect of the sequel could format iy with more with unnecessary (and too late) followups like Sin City: A Dame to Kill Forand Dumb and Dumber To.
If Independence Day 2 never offered a an authentic idea or an in-depth exploration what make the Indepence Day world more interesting, then it may not keep up with some of the audience's expectation. Independence Day 1 could also use a scene or just a tiny little part of Pullman's rallying speech from Independence Day if it to be really successful.
Indpenendence Day 2 is yet for a scheduled release on June 24, 2016
