Reprising his role from the first film, Jeff Goldblum always gives great boffin. Remember his chaos theorist in the first two Jurassic Park movies? His satellite technician David Levinson kicked off the plot of the original Independence Dayby discovering the hidden transmissions in Earth satellites that act as a countdown to alien invasion. It's sa...
Will Smith isn't returning for the sequel. Instead, talented young American TV star Jessie Usher brings a fresh new face to the cast as the stepson of Smith's fighter pilot. It's part of a conscious decision by Emmerich to introduce a new generation of alien-bashing heroes.
Bill Pullman is back as Thomas Whitmore. But he's no longer the President of the United States. That's hardly surprising really, as no president serves a 20 year term. But we can presume that the wise old buzzard will have some sage words of advice for his successor (see below). And, it turns out, Whitmore still shares his psychic connection with t...
Hot from the Hunger Gamesfranchise, hunky Liam Hemsworth is the most high-profile addition to the cast as fighter pilot Jake Morrison.

In fact no: she's now working in a...
Taking over from Mae Whitman,It Follows scream queen and co-star of upcoming young adult novel adaptation The 5th Wave Maika Monroe plays Patricia, the daughter of now ex-president Whitmore.

The exotically named Chinese model and actress who's been dubbed the Kim Kardashian of China, joins the next generation cast as a pilot called Rain. Her Hollywood debut was a small role as Agent 47's handler in Hitman: Agent 47, but she's appeared in several well-received action movies back home, which should have given her ample preparation for ki...
Hang on a minute – wasn't hairy Area 51 boffin Dr. Brackish Okun polished off by an alien in the first film? Well, it appears he's not quite as dead as we thought, as Brent Spiner is back in the role for the sequel.
