Jeff Goldblum as David Levinson
Bill Pullman as Thomas J. Whitmore
Liam Hemsworth as Jake Morrison
Jessie Usher as Dylan Dubrow (Originally played by Ross Bagley)
Maika Monroe as Patricia Whitmore (originally played by Mae Whitman)
Sela Ward as US President Lanford

And no Will Smith either, I wonder how they are gonna explain his absence. Either way, I'm excited about the Independence Day sequels.

Here's the Synopsis for the Sequel.
http://comicbook.com/2015/06/06/syno...been-released/
Quote:
After “Independence Day” redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapter delivers global catastrophe on an unimaginable scale. 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.

I've been supremely interested in this since I heard about it. I don't care if it's cheese... Independence Day 1 was pure spectacle and good ole American machismo boiled down to its core in a humans vs. Aliens form and I'm fine with that. This time it'll be interesting to see this new revisionist... not even future, but rather a revisionist present. Had we gotten attacked by Aliens in 1997 or whatever it was, and won... and we have all this dead Alien tech laying around for 18 years, where would we be now? And now they come back?

It's a very interesting concept. And yeah, it's weird that Will Smith couldn't be wooed back for another 7/4 premiere, but whatever. My biggest worry is everything I've read about them planning this as Part 1 of some kind of big sweeping trilogy... yeah, stop that. Just compile that energy into giving us a good open and shut sequel. If it does well, sit down in 2 years and see if there's a part 3, not now.

Fox had a Press Conference for Independence Day 2, Which is officially titled Independence Day: Resurgence.



The Press Conference Starts on the 57:11 mark.





They showed the new vehicles that are in the sequel, One is a hybrid fighter jet and and a forklift type vehicle called the Moon Tug





Check out this Concept Art courtesy of Empire Online.

No offense to Will Smith fans but I'm glad he's not in it, from what it sounds like why he didn't return it's due to him not having his real son in the film unlike After Earth which LOL Bombed hard. Besides, Will and his son would have taken a lot of time away from other characters.

Jeff ( David ) Was my favorite character any ways and it sounds like he will be playing a major role in these

Why didn't they wait till the comic con for this though? I wonder if they'll do some thing on this there any ways?

He was already scheduled to film other movies. Suicide Squad being the big one. It has nothing to do with his son.

I didn't care for the first one. It was pretty dumb and cheesy but I guess that was the point. Still I'm kinda interested to see what this is like.

I've seen people complaining that Will Smith owes his fame to this and it's what made him a big a star. It makes me laugh because, oh really?...His music and Fresh Prince were just stepping stones I guess. MIB came out the next year.

I've dug the original since i was a teen when it came out as i saw it 4 times and is one of my fave sci-fi movies.

This should be a nice reunion despite Smith is not in it.

Cool it's a 2 minute and 6 second trailer.

I wouldn't be surprise if the trailer came out during the week of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

The trailer is expected to play in front of The Force Awakens next week, which means we will see it online in the middle of the week.
