It lasts about three seconds, but sharp-eyed viewers spotted Singapore's skyline in a new trailer for disaster movie Independence Day: Resurgence that was launched at the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Later on in the trailer, London suffers similar devastation.

The movie, to be screened in June, stars Liam Hemsworth and Maika Monroe.

The plot for the new movie takes place two decades after the first invasion, and earth must face a new alien threat.
