independence-day-resurgence-logoIT’S TAKEN 20 years but Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin are now revisiting the world of Independence Day as the aliens return to take a second stab at invading Earth. Written, like its 1996 predecessor, by the duo (this time aided by Carter Blanchard) and with Emmerich again in the director’s chair, Independence Day: Resurgence is scheduled to premiere in the US and UK on June 24, 2016.

The 20th Century Fox production stars Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Judd Hirsch, Vivica A Fox and Brent Spiner, who are reprising their original roles. Joining them this time round are Liam Hemsworth, Jessie Usher, Maika Monroe, Sela Ward, Angelababy, Joey King, Charlotte Gainsbourg and William Fichtner.
