Welp, Those Rotten Aliens Are Back in the 'Independence Day: Resurgence' Trailer
Hey, remember those real jerk aliens from Independence Day? Well, undeterred by the rousing speeches of President Bill Pullman, those guys are back in Independence Day: Resurgence. And this time, we don't have Will Smith nor any more expendable Randy Quaids sitting around. By way of the official site, Will Smith's Col. Steven Hiller is dead, killed testing the alien technology of advanced contract negotiations--but fear not, because he was not sacrificed for naught.
Twenty years since what's been dubbed "The War of 1996" (how has the war in which aliens massacred the planet been given a less grandiose title than even a World War?), we've advanced greatly. We've managed to implement the extra-terrestrial tech into our own armies, so our fighters will no longer look laughably quaint to the aliens; they'll just look stupidly outdated. Former U.S. President Bill Pullman is now either a well-dressed hermit or maybe in an indie band. Jeff Goldblum seemingly goes to the moon. Earth has recruited that other Hemsworth guy. Judd Hirsch has a boat now! And, most impressively, Vivica A. Fox appears to have graduated from exotic dancer to scientist. It's unclear what the aliens have done in the time since, but I seriously doubt any of them had that sort of inspirational career advancement.
Anyway, here's your trailer:
