Really? That's your problem with the story. Not the fact that aliens attacked us with incredibly advanced weapons and we defeated them by installing a virus using Mac OS 7, but the timing?

Do you hate Die Hard for the sequel also being a Christmas terrorist attack? Anyways, I'm pretty sure they're just going to keep the franchise name and that's about it for its relevancy towards July 4th.

Bill Pullman says Independence Day 2 could go with or without Will Smith.

Quote:

While at a party thrown by the Television Critics Association, Pullman was asked about director Roland Emmerich and producer Dean Devlin's schedule for Independence Day 2.

Quote:

"Within a year, yeah, something like that I guess," Pullman said. "I worried about taking this part [on 1600 Penn] because it's heating up. I thought, 'I don't know if I should do the comedy' and I talked to Dean and Roland and they said, "No, do it. We'll work around it. If it goes, we'll work around it."

They're also open to working around Will Smith's schedule. His breakout role as Capt. Steven Hiller is synonymous with the original film. The actor's expressed interest in returning, but if he doesn't, they have a contingency plan.

Quote:

"The Will Smith part of it may be ongoing but I think there's strategies for both. I like what I have to do in both of them. I'm not in an old age home in a wheelchair being wheeled out for one more moment. It's a very interesting conception of what happens to Whitmore between then and when it picks back up."

This movie would instantly triple in flop potential if Smith isn't in the cast.
