The J.J. Abrams-Produced Sci-Fi Flick GOD PARTICLE Will Be The Next Film In The CLOVERFIELD Series
Many speculated that the mysterious J.J. Abrams-produced God Particle would actually be connected to the Cloverfield movies, and it turns out they were absolutely right. Details after the jump...
Upcoming space-set adventure, God Particle, is going to be set in the same universe as both Cloverfield and 10 Cloverfield Lane, The Wrap reports. Though both previous movies only shared tenuous connections, they were supposed to take place in the same continuity, and this new J.J. Abrams-produced sci-fi film will follow suit.
In fact, word is Abrams and Paramount Pictures plan to develop more movies in the coming years to form a sort of Cloverfield Cinematic Universe. How exactly they'll all wind up interconnecting remains to be seen, but it's certainly an intriguing prospect.
God Particle (probably not the final title) is about a group of astronauts who make "a shocking discovery, that changes the fabric of reality, leading to a fight for their survival," and stars David Oyelowo, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Ziyi Zhang, Elizabeth Debicki, Daniel Brühl and Chris O’Dowd.
The movie is directed by Oren Uziel (22 Jump Street, Freaks Of Nature), and is set to hit theaters on February 24, 2017.
