It helped launch what has become one of the most successful acting careers in recent memory and now it looks like the Will Smith classic "Independence Day" is going to be getting two sequels. Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich, the men behind the 1996 action movie, are almost done with a script, though its uncertain whether or not Smith will be reprising his role, Vulture reports. Fox has been in negotiations with Smith to film the movies since 2009, but the actor's representation demanded a hefty price tag for the Fresh Prince to participate in the back-to-back filming. Few details are known about the plot except that the project will tell one story split up into two movies. "They're intended to be fulfilling movies onto themselves - you could see each separately and enjoy them - but they tell one big story," a source close to the project told the publication. While Will Smith might not be back for the sequels that doesn't mean movie buffs can't check him out in some of his best roles including "Men in Black" and "I Am Legend."
