Will Smith almost wasn’t cast to lead the 1996 sci-fi blockbuster “Independence Day” because he’s Black. Roland Emmerich and writer Dean Devlin discuss their fight with 20 Century Fox to cast Smith in the film. The studio wasn’t convinced a Black actor would appeal to foreign audiences. “The studio said, ‘No, we don’t like Will Smith. He’s unproven. He doesn’t work in international [markets]’,” Emmerich told THR ahead of the film’s 25th anniversary. “[Fox] said, ‘You cast a Black guy in this part, you’re going to kill foreign [box office],’” Devlin added. “Our argument was, ‘Well, the movie is about space aliens. It’s going to do fine foreign.’ It was a big war, and Roland really stood up for [Smith] – and we ultimately won that war.”
