There’s a New ‘Cloverfield’ Film on the Way and We’ve Got Early Details

As insane as it seems, the Cloverfield franchise could very well end up being one of the few great modern franchises. Cloverfield was an absolute blast, and an obvious standout of the found footage genre. 10 Cloverfield Lane was loosely related to Cloverfield, but really presented a completely unique concept. That concept was intelligent, and the film was damn powerful.

JJ Abrams and Paramount Pictures are gearing up to bring a third Cloverfield film to the masses soon. Cloverfield: God Particle will again be related to Cloverfield, but won’t serve as a direct sequel. Just as 10 Cloverfield Lane managed, the film will continue to expand the Cloverfield universe all while telling an exclusive tale to the first two stories.

“Particle” is about a team of astronauts who make a “shocking discovery” and end up fighting for survival in what is described as an altered reality. Julis Onah (“The Girl Is in Trouble”) directed from a script by Oren Uziel. It stars David Oyelowo, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Ziyi Zhang, Elizabeth Debicki, Daniel Brühl and Chris O’Dowd.

God Particle is scheduled to arrive on February 24^th, 2017. If all goes according to plan for Abrams and Paramount, we’ll be seeing a new Cloverfield arrive on an annual basis.
