Hot on the heels of sending aliens after our planet in INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE, director Roland Emmerich has announced his next project titled MOONFALL. The movie is fast tracked over at Universal and Emmerich will co-write with the film with Harald Kloser, with whom he penned 2012. The plot centers around "an unlikely band of misfits who must unite to save humanity when the moon falls out of orbit and hurtles towards earth." and is being described as "Emmerich’s 2012 mashed together with Close Encounters Of The Third Kind." Emmerich has a special affinity for destroying our planet so this project sounds right in his wheelhouse. I'm not a huge Roland Emmerich fan so I could take or leave this news, but I'm sure he will make it all look really pretty. Though, I can't help but think he's missing a opportunity by not calling this movie ARMAGEDDON 2: MAJORA'S MASK. What do you think about Roland Emmerich's next earth-shattering project? In the meantime, you can see Jeff Goldblum, Liam Hemsworth, Bill Pullman, and Jessie T. Usher try to save the earth from extraterrestrials (again) in INDEPENDECE DAY: RESURGENCE, which is in theaters now
