Here’s a first thumbnail synopsis for the forthcoming INDEPENDENCE DAY sequel.
This was originally spotted on Rotten Tomatoes (noted via IndieWire), but didn’t get much traction as the veracity of the description wasn’t certain.
According to comicbook.com, the synopsis has been mirrored in a ‘licensing expo magazine.' Thus…here you go:
We always knew they were coming back. After INDEPENDENCE DAY redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapter delivers global catastrophe 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. (C) Fox
The ID sequel opens June 24, mixing many returning members of the original film’s cast with new blood amidst (what promises to be) no shortage of spectacle.
