In a recent interview with SlashFilm, Bill Pullman and Sela Ward talked about working on Independence Day: Resurgence and revealed a little bit about the plot.

Pullman revealed that his character, former President Whitmore, will be leaving a peaceful life away from all the political drama in the country.

"I'm living in a suburb in Virginia outside of [Washington] DC, living a quiet life," he said. "My daughter [Maika Monroe] has the exciting things going on now. She used to live in the White House to me, but she is now working for... the big woman."

Independence Day: Resurgence will hit theaters on June 24, 2016, with actual Independence Day just around the corner.
