The skies above the Super Bowl were the setting for the latest trailer from Independence Day: Resurgence which debuted, appropriately enough, during the big game. The new trailer finds Liam Hemsworth playing a pilot who takes on alien fighters amid lots of CG action. There’s also a brief scene of Jeff Goldblum reprising his role as Dr. David Levinson. The cast also includes Bill Pullman, Judd Hirsch, Maika Monroe, Jessie Usher, William Fichtner, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Travis Tope, Sela Ward, Brent Spiner, and Vivica A. Fox. (Don’t look for Will Smith’s return as he was busy shooting Suicide Squad.)
Independence Day: Resurgence will be released in theaters on June 24, 2016.
The Plot:
We always knew they were coming back. After Independence Day redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapter delivers 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.
