I M LEGEND 2: Final Chapter – Full Teaser Trailer – Will Smith

The plot of “I Am Legend 2” will probably lead to a bit of confusion for those who know the predecessor. It was about the scientist Robert Neville, who is supposedly the last living human being in a post-apocalyptic world and has to fight for his survival. He spends the day hunting antelopes and sending radio messages to possible survivors of a global plague. At night, however, he hides, as it is dominated by the infected, who avoid the daylight.

The end of the movie was rather sad: Robert catches an infected person and wants to test a potential cure on them. However, this causes other infected individuals to overrun his lab. In the ensuing battle, he dies, and his story thus seemed to be concluded.

However, an alternate ending was included as part of the film’s home release, which explains Robert’s return in the sequel: he realizes that the infected aren’t after him at all, but only want to free the woman he captured. He also discovers that the infected are not soulless undead at all, but intelligent beings. They have created their own society and simply want to be left alone. After the infected person is freed, Robert is able to join other survivors on a journey to one of the last camps where other humans still exist.
