There will be no Will Smith in the sequel. The film answers that, explaining that Smith’s character was promoted to Colonel in 2007 but died shortly after as a result of complications in testing out the first alien hybrid fighter.
But his legacy is carried on by his wife, played by Vivica A. Fox, and son. Also returning to the sequel are Jeff Goldblum, Judd Hirsch and Bill Pullman.

Weird that they are re-releasing Santa Claus Conquers The Martians, a movie so great that it is the only one that MST3K and its offshoot (Cinematic Titanic) riffed on twice.
