Fox definitely has a lot under her belt these days. Currently, she’s continuing to build her successful hair piece business and was cast as Taraji P. Henson‘s sister on season 2 of the hit Fox show Empire. She’s also working on furthering her brand by adding lingerie to her list of endeavors and starring in the sequel to the 1996 box office hit Independence Day. Fox recently sat down with Detroit Free Press to talk about her role as Jasmine in Independence Day: Resurgence.
According to Fox, her character Jasmine is much more mature after 20 years and has moved on from being a stripper “working that pole.” Now, she’s a hospital administrator and a mother of a son, played by Survivor’s Remorse star Jessie Usher, who she encourages to pursue a career as a fighter pilot. Fox said Usher became a part of the project at the suggestion of former co-star Will Smith, who she says could not be a part of the sequel due to scheduling conflicts, but ultimately wished the best for her and the film.
“He gave us his blessing,” Fox told the Detroit Free Press. “He wanted to do Suicide Squad and other projects, so he passed. We missed him – trust me, we did – but he gave us his blessings and for that we’re very grateful.”
Although there was a lot of pressure to carry on the film without Smith, Fox said that the overall success of the film was not just attributed to him or his character, but the team as a whole. The 51-year-old explained that many of the original team members are returning for the 2016 sequel including Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum, Judd Hirsch and Brent Spiner, and they all look great and are really excited.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Goldblum released a teaser back in July via Facebook about the alien invasion film, and a separate video with this quote describing the film, “We thought we wiped them out. The Resurgence is here.”
So there I was thinking about how I would save mankind when this guy photobombs me. Oh, why hello Facebook, nice to finally meet you. #IDR

Fox explained that despite the 20 year difference, and the change of occupation from stripper to administrator, she’s back and better than ever. Fans will have to wait until June 2016 to see if the sequel lives up to her word, but you can definitely tell from her recent lingerie photos that her body is still tight.
