Will Smith fans were heartbroken after 20th Century Fox announced a sequel to the 1996 'Independence Day' but Will Smith was nowhere to be found. ComicBook.com had a chance to speak with director of the new film Roland Emmerich on Thursday and he gave the low down on why Smith did not return. The reason being Smith had received the new script for 'Independence Day: Resurgence' after just finishing 'Men In Black 3' and while he was in the middle of 'After Earth.' Emmerich says he understands, even he needed two years to get through two scripts.
