Vivica A. Fox, who played Will Smith’s girlfriend in 1996’s “Independence Day,” says that this summer’s sequel, “Independence Day: Resurgence,” will up the action when it bows in June.

“Resurgence” will be “bigger and badder,” Miss Fox told The Washington Times recently.

Also returning to the sequel are Jeff Goldblum, Judd Hirsch, Bill Pullman and Brent Spiner of “Star Trek: The Next Generation” fame. 

According to the IMDB, 20th Century Fox balked at Mr. Smith’s demands for an exorbitant payday to reprise his role in the sequel.
