Brent Spiner will return for Independence Day 2 So we guess Dr. Brackish Okun survived Independence Day after all? It certainly seems that way, with director Roland Emmerich announcing on Twitter that Brent Spiner will return in the upcoming Independence Day 2. Emmerich also announced the addition of Fargo actress Joey King to the cast, which already includes Vivica A. Fox, Jessie Usher, Jeff Goldblum, Liam Hemsworth, and Charlotte Gainsbourg. Carter Blanchard is writing the script for the sequel, which is reportedly set for a June 24, 2016 release. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/04/10/brent-spiner-will-return-independence-day-2

Focus (2015) Blu-ray Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is bringing Glenn Ficarra and John Requa's Focus (2015) to Blu-ray this June. The film stars Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Adrian Martinez, Gerald McRaney, Rodrigo Santoro and BD Wong, and arrives on Blu-ray/DVD/Digital HD combo pack on June 2nd. Will Smith stars as Nicky, a seasoned master of misdirection who becomes romantically involved with novice con artist Jess (Margot Robbie). As he's teaching her the tricks of the trade, she gets too close for comfort and he abruptly breaks it off. Three years later, the former flame—now an accomplished femme fatale—shows up in Buenos Aires in the middle of the high stakes racecar circuit. In the midst of Nicky's latest, very dangerous scheme, she throws his plans for a loop…and the consummate con man off his game. Focus is written and directed by Glenn Ficarra & John Requa (Crazy, Stupid, Love.), with Denise Di Novi serving as producer and Charlie Gogolak and Stan Wlodkowski as executive producers. The behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Xavier Grobet (Enough Said), production designer Elizabeth Mickle (Drive), editor Jan Kovac (HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm), and from Crazy, Stupid, Love., costume designer Dayna Pink and composer Nick Urata.

I guess most of us knew the truth about these myths, but I have to admit that it's the first time I hear that Will's character is actually dead. I mean, people seriously believed Will actually died in the playground fight in the theme song? That's just hilarious.
