Han is the second star from the popular Dark Knight trilogy by Christopher Nolan, following William Fichtner's addition which was announced last week! Unlike Fichtner however, we don't know what role Chin will be playing in Independence Day 2, but once we know, we'll be sure to update this post! Fichtner will be playing a Top General and from what sources claim, he won't be dying in Independence Day 2... or Independence Day 3. That's right, not one, but three sequels are apparently planned for the popular sci-fi franchise, making Independence Day a quadrilogy over the course of the next 10 years or so. You can read more about that, here!
