First Look At Will Smith In The Independence Day Sequel.
Well, there it is. Your first look. For those who don’t know, Will Smith’s Col. Hiller won’t be returning for the sequel to 1996’s ‘Independence Day’. Rumor has it that two different scripts were penned, one if Smith returned, and one if he chose not to, so we can obviously see which one they chose. The official “report” from the viral site The War Of 1996 – United We Stand, reads as below.
While test piloting the ESD’s first alien hybrid fighter, an unknown malfunction causes the untimely death of Col. Hiller. Hiller’s valor in the War of 96 made him a beloved global icon whose selfless assault against the alien mothership lead directly to the enemy’s defeat. He is survived by his wife Jasmine and son Dylan.
Aside from seeing Will Smith explode, we also got an amazing first look at the rest of the film. Check out the first official trailer for “Independence Day: Resurgence”
