Mere months before its release, Dan Trachtenberg's 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE (previously titled THE CELLAR) was revealed to be somewhat of a spiritual sequel to J.J. Abrams' CLOVERFIELD. Although the final film may not have been the CLOVERFIELD sequel which fans were hoping for, it was very positively recieved largely thanks to the incredible performances from Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Goodman. It seems that Abrams is keen to keep this loosely connected CLOVERFIELD franchise growing as The Wrap reports that the upcoming GOD PARTICLE will also share a CLOVERFIELD connection.
In addition to being the third film in this franchise, The Wrap also claims that J.J. Abrams and Paramount Pictures are "quietly developing more movies for the shared universe" with the hope that a new CLOVERFIELD film will be released each year. An interesting plan, and one which I've got absolutely no problem with if they keep giving us work on par with 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE. Directed by Julius Onah (THE GIRL IS IN TROUBLE), the upcoming GOD PARTICLE stars Daniel Brühl, Elizabeth Debicki, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Chris O'Dowd, Zhang Ziyi, David Oyelowo, Aksel Hennie, John Ortiz and "centers on a team of astronauts who make a terrifying discovery that challenges everything they know about the fabric of reality, as they desperately fight for survival." The first footage from the film is expected to be shown to reporters tomorrow in New York.
GOD PARTICLE is set for a February 24, 2017 release.
