It's been nearly 20 years, but the wait for a sequel to "Independence Day" is over.

"Independence Day 2," whose predecessor grossed more than $800 million in the summer of 1996, has star Jeff Goldblum reprising his role as David Levinson.

The only other actors officially attached to the project are Liam Hemsworth and Jessie Usher, according to EOnline.

Roland Emmerich, who directed the first film, will be the lead on this project as well. He took to Instagram to announce the good news regarding Goldblum and Hemsworth.

Usher also posted a photo to the social media site, confirming reports of his inclusion in the film.

It is still not known if Will Smith, who starred alongside Goldblum in the first film, will be returning for the sequel.
