Independence Day 3

From Cancelled Movies Wiki

Independence Day 3 was a planned third film in the Independence Day series and wasn't known to have an official title. It was announced by Roland Emmerich shortly after Independence Day: Resurgence was released in theaters.[1]

Plot

Jake Morrison, Dylan Hiller, Patricia Whitmore, and Dr. David Levinson form an alliance to take down new aliens.

Why It Was Cancelled

  1. Independence Day: Resurgence received extremely negative reviews from critics and audiences alike.
  2. Independence Day: Resurgence was a massive box office disappointment.
  3. Sometime afterward, Disney merged with 20th Century Fox thus killing off the Independence Day franchise.
  4. Dean Devlin decided not to make a third film following the poor reception and box office performance of Resurgence. However, Rolland Emmerich recently said that he has an idea for a third film. Despite all of that, there is still a highly unlikely chance there will be a third film. [2]

Result

  • Independence Day 3 was permanently cancelled.
