They’re back!
The aliens who tried to destroy the planet in 1996’s Independence Day have returned in Independence Day: Resurgence.
The synopsis is pretty simple:
Twenty years after the events of the first film, the international community recovers and builds up Earth’s defenses using technology salvaged from remains of the alien forces. However, the aliens were able to send a distress signal before their final defeat, which results in a new task force of alien ships coming to Earth and threatening the human race once more.
Along for the action this time are some familiar faces and a few new ones – Liam Hemsworth, It Follows’ Maika Monroe, Vivica A Fox, Survivors Remorse’s Jessie Usher, William Fichtner, Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum, and Judd Hirsh.
Roland Emmerich returns to direct so at least the worldwide destruction scenes will look amazing.
Independence Day: Resurgence opens June 24th, 2016.
