With The Cloverfield paradox and 10 Cloverfield Lane, the idea of ​​a The movie “Cloverfield” It has he endured long after his release from the original from 2008. But I never found out more about that story. That monster. And now, that it could eventually change.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that Joe Barton, the latest showrunner of the future HBO show Max Gotham City, was hired by Bad Robot and Paramount to write a Cloverfield 2. Unlike the first film, it will not be a recorded film, but it will be a direct sequel to that film. The other one Cloverfield movies there were more “spiritual” sequels, although the elements did tangentially and potentially, tie them all together.

JJ Abrams, who helped design the first film with writer Drew Goddard and director Matt Reeves, will return to production, but none of the others will join him. (Although Reeves produces Barton Gotham City’s show, so there is probably a connection there.)

It is also unknown what direction Barton will take, if he will repeat the other films, use some of the same characters, etc. for fans of the original Cloverfield, it is certainly exciting to believe that we will finally learn more about monster that terrified New Yorkers in 2008.
