Who doesn't love seeing Jeff Goldblum do his thing onscreen? I know I do. If you're a fan of his work then we've got some good news and, sadly, some bad news for you as the star has confirmed he is set for a return in Roland Emmerich's INDEPENDENCE DAY 2, but hasn't been contacted regarding the upcoming JURASSIC WORLD.
So let's get the bad news out of the way first, shall we? The bad news is that we might not be seeing the return of Dr. Ian Malcolm in the upcoming JURASSIC WORLD, but Goldblum seems to be OK with that.
Yeah, and they haven't called me for "4," I know Steven Spielberg isn't directing it …
When asked if not having Spielberg helming the third film in the series was the reason he wasn't a part of JURASSIC WORLD III, Goldblum responded…
No, nobody asked me, but I was perfectly satisfied with the two that I did. I'm still satisfied with that and I'll be the first in line to see anything else, so, you know. But, "Independence Day" …
Well, since you brought up INDEPENDENCE DAY, Mr. Goldblum…
We've known for a while that Goldblum was in talks to come back for INDEPENDENCE DAY 2, and while doing press for his new film, Wes Anderson's THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL, confirmed that he'll be working with Emmerich on the long-awaited sequel, sharing…
Yeah, they've talked to me about it and I've talked to them about it and they're excited and I'm anxious and eager to see — I haven't read anything — what they cook up. You know, I think they're trying to put it together.
I'm always down to see Goldblum go against some extraterrestrial baddies again. Hopefully we'll hear more on ID2 soon.
