Independence Day: Resurgence Concept Art Revealed


Independence Day: Resurgence Title Teaser
 

Following yesterday’s Indepedence Day: Resurgence title reveal, now Fox has released a piece of concept art.

Via Empire:

Like every Irwin Allen film all at once, this concept art shows the military piloting an alien craft through what was once a city but now looks a lot more like the third act of Age Of Ultron writ large. “The world is totally rebuilt,” expands the director in the new issue of Empire. “They had alien technology and anti-gravity, so they could rebuild quite fast. Imagine what we would do with alien technology and who would have it.”

Update #2: Official title, title teaser and images revealed for Independent Day: Resurgence.

Independence Day 2 has a June 24, 2016 release.

Synopsis:

It was an ordinary summer day. But then, without warning, something very extraordinary happened: Enormous shadows fell across the land. Strange atmospheric phenomena, ominous and mesmerizing, surfaced around the globe. All eyes turned upward.

The question of whether we’re alone in the universe was finally answered. And, in a matter of minutes, the lives of every person across the globe were forever changed.

With the fate of our planet at stake, the Fourth of July took on an entirely new meaning. No longer was it solely an American holiday. It would be known as the day the entire world fought back. The day we did not go gentle into the good night … The day all of us on planet Earth celebrated ourIndependence Day.

From director Roland Emmerich and producer Dean Devlin, 1996’s Independence Day shattered opening weekend and total box office records, becoming the year’s top-grossing film. It also became the first movie in history to gross over $500m internationally.

But Independence Day was just the beginning. We always knew they were coming back. After that film redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapter in the Independence Day universe delivers a global spectacle 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.

 

We’ve joined the ESD! Stay tuned for #IndependenceDayLive!

Jeff Goldblum, Liam Hemsworth & Jesse Usher Cast In Independence Day 2

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19483:]]

Independence Day 2 has cast Jeff Goldblum, Liam Hemsworth and Jesse Usher in roles for the sequel that follows the original from twenty years ago.

Goldblum will return as David Levinson; Usher will be playing Dylan Hiller, the son of Will Smith’s Captain Steven Hiller; Hemsworth is rumored to be playing the son-in-law of Bill Pullman’s President Whitmore.

Director Roland Emmerich shared the news on Facebook.

First you strategically position your pieces, and when the time is right, you strike.” Excited to officially announce Liam Hemsworth and Jeff Goldblum as the next two pieces of the Independence Day sequel!

Excited to officially announce that Jessie Usher will be joining the cast for the sequel of Independence Day!

Trivia: My producing partner Harald Kloser noticed Jessie in between sets of pushups at the gym and gave him an audition. As they say, the rest is history!

Independence Day 2 has a June 24, 2016 release, which will not see Will Smith return, but Pullman is expected back.

Potential plot details that Emmerich previously talked about mentioned the aliens returning, but Earth better prepared as they have used the alien technology to their advantage.
