Producer Dean Devlin has been talking up the prospect of sequels to two of his most successful films, with a second helping of Independence Day top of his list.
“I can tell you that [director] Roland [Emmerich] and I have been working together for the first time in 11 years and we’re very excited about the idea of doing it,” Devlin told The Hollywood Reporter.
Elaborating on the belated alien invasion sequel, he explained “Creatively, for the first time since we did the original, I feel we have a worthy concept; a worthy path to go.”
And while Devlin wouldn’t be drawn on the details of said concept, he did reveal that the duo have commenced talks with the original cast, which included Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman.
Elsewhere in the interview, the producer intimated that he and Emmerich would also consider revisiting another of their sci-fi hits.
“Stargate has always had this empty hole,” he admitted. “When we made the first one, we always intended on doing parts two and three, and we were prevented for years. Our hope is that we can get another chance at Stargate and tell the entire story we want to tell.”
So would you rather see a sequel to Stargate or Independence Day? Let us know in the comments below.
