Will Smith is rumored to have been paid 100 million for Men in Black 3 (20M upfront and the other 80M from box office results). At that rate, the ID42 producers were NEVER going to able to afford him!

Do you think that Bill Pullman could do his castmates from the cancelled sitcom 1600 Penn a solid and cast them as his family in the Independence day movie?

Of course he can, Bill can do anything.

If Will Smith really was given that much money for MIIIB than Will Smith is a fucking cock.
After Earth will hopefully make him realize that he's isn't God's gift to mankind or movies.
If they are all under 20 than maybe. His first wife is dead, so he would have had to get remarried and have some kids.

I don't care if Will Smith comes back or not. I'm just thrilled Jeff Goldlum is back! I'm sold already.

I think one sequel (let alone two) to this movie is a bad idea. Didn't the prime opportunity for this evaporate around the time Emmerich and Devlin were wasting their time with The Patriot and Godzilla?
That said, the original is a fun, jingoistic blast. If a sequel can approach the tone of the original, it might be fun. Let's just hope they get the cast right, because like the best 70s disaster movies ID4 was partly modeled on, getting a terrific group of actors is key.

Ah, but ID4 WAS the sequel to Stargate (and 10,000 BC was the prequel
)

It was a catalyst for whatever power supply the ship was using. (How they knew what that was, where it was vulnerable, and that a chain reaction would occur is something else entirely.)

Re: Roland Emmerich & Dean Devlin want to make Independence Day 2 (ID4
Shouldn't the sequel come out July 3rd 2016? Why are they releasing it on the 19th anniversary instead of the 20th?
Adam Baldwin needs to be back and be promoted to General in charge of the Earth Defense Fleet.

Re: Roland Emmerich & Dean Devlin want to make Independence Day 2 (ID4
Because it's a two part movie and the third will come out then.

There's still a lot of storytelling left to be told, too.
All we saw was them (likely) destroying the mothership and one of the cityships. There were still plenty of their fighters zipping around, and there were very likely survivors after the cityship went down. It's also unlikely given the dialogue that every other cityship was attacked during the admittedly short amount of time it would take the cityships to recover their shields after losing connection with the mothership, though the general tactic of launching weapons at their megaweapon just as it was firing as I can't imagine that working with their shields up.
And even if they did manage to eliminate all the aliens who came to Earth, they now have access to all sorts of alien technologies which they could have spent the last umpteen years reverse-engineering and perfecting for what could be the rest of their fleet or even just another mothership. If not another invading race altogether. And you just know Earth's flagship (if they have one) is going to be named after Casse.
That's all on top of the storytelling about rebuilding what's left of the world's governments and infrastructure, though I doubt that'd be a part of the movie(s).
