Plot Summary

Years after the events of After Earth (2013), Kitai Raige (Jaden Smith) has become a skilled and respected ranger in the United Ranger Corps. Though Earth was once again deemed habitable, strange evolutionary shifts and alien mutations have turned the planet into an even more lethal ecosystem.

Now, a powerful alien race—long believed to be behind the original Ursas—has begun terraforming nearby colonies, threatening human survival across the galaxy. A message from deep space reveals that Earth may hold the secret to stopping them—hidden in its ancient ruins.

Kitai is sent on a high-stakes mission back to Earth, leading a new elite squad of rangers. But this time, the danger isn’t just creatures in the jungle—the planet itself is alive, and it remembers what humanity did.

As Kitai fights to survive, he discovers that his destiny is not just to defend humanity… but to become its bridge to something greater.
