Director Roland Emmerich ("Independence Day") is finally moving forward with his long-planned "Stargate" sequel. In fact, the new installment in the franchise will be a reboot, and the first in a potential trilogy. It's funny how nowadays everything is planned by trilogy. The original followed the adventures of a military unit led by Kurt Russell who along with a scientist played by James Spader travel through a wormhole (the Stargate) to a planet with humans resembling ancient Egyptians who worship the god Ra, who is actually an alien. MGM and Warner Bros will partner up for the reboot and Dean Devlin will return to produce. Emmerich is currently busy with the small-budget gay rights drama "Stonewall" and he is also preparing to begin production on "Independence Day 2". The latter will be released in theaters on July 1, 2016.
