While discussing her true-crime series “The Interrogation Room” with A.V. Club, Fox dived into the perceived failings of “Independence Day: Resurgence.”

“I just didn’t feel like it was good and lived up to the first one,” she expressed, voicing her belief that the absence of Smith, who portrayed her on-screen husband and ace pilot Steven Hiller in the original movie, heavily impacted the sequel’s performance and audience reception. Unfortunately, negotiations for Smith to return for the sequel and a third film broke down due to salary disputes.

In true Vivica A. Fox fashion, she’s keeping it real when it comes to why she believes 2016’s “Independence Day: Resurgence” wasn’t the success it could’ve been: It needed Will Smith.
“I just didn’t feel like it was good and lived up to the first one,” Fox told A.V. Club while promoting her true-crime series “The Interrogation Room.” “I really feel we missed out… by not bringing Will Smith back.”
Will Smith was in talks to return for “Independence Day: Resurgence” (and a third film that was planned at the time) but negotiations fell apart over Smith’s salary.
With Roland Emmerich directing and cowriting the script with Dean Devlin, the sequel took place 20 years after the first. In that time, Smith’s character, Steven Hiller, had died and returning and new characters now had to protect Earth from a new threat.

Vivica A. Fox confesses that “Independence Day: Resurgence” didn’t live up its predecessor, specifically because the 2016 sequel didn’t manage to bring Will Smith back to reprise his role from the 1996 blockbuster classic.
In a conversation with the A.V. Club to promote her new true crime series “The Interrogation Room,” Fox touched on the 2016 “Resurgence” saying she “didn’t feel like it was good” and that it “didn’t live up to the first one.”
“I really feel we missed out by not bringing Will Smith back. We had most of the original cast, but I think the one true link that was missing to the success of ‘Independence Day 2’ was that Will Smith wasn’t there,” Fox shared. “I’m going to keep it real — I was at the premiere and I was like ‘Mmm, let’s see how the fans are going to feel about this.
