As of February 2025, there is no official “After Earth 2” movie in development. The recent “After Earth 2” trailer featuring Will and Jaden Smith is a fan-made creation utilizing AI technology.
Released on January 8, 2025, by KH Studio, the trailer blends clips from various sci-fi films with AI-generated visuals to depict an imagined sequel where Kitai Raige, portrayed by Jaden Smith, returns to Earth as a seasoned ranger to help secure humanity’s future.
The trailer also features AI-generated voiceovers mimicking Will Smith’s voice. However, neither Will nor Jaden Smith has confirmed involvement in an official “After Earth 2” project.
The original “After Earth” (2013) did not perform as expected at the box office, earning $243 million globally against a production budget of $130 million, leading to its status as a financial failure. This underperformance has likely contributed to the absence of plans for an official sequel.
