'Cloverfield 2' Planned
Because you demanded it!
No surprise here: "Cloverfield" will receive a sequel, according to a report in Variety.
Paramount is in "early talks" with "Cloverfield" director Matt Reeves, producer J.J. Abrams and writer Drew Goddard to produce a sequel to the record-breaking, low-budget (if you consider $25 million "low-budget," that is) horror film. The film earned nearly twice its production costs in the first weekend it hit theaters, and set a record for the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday weekend.
According to the report, Reeves is also in talks to direct a film titled "The Invisible Woman," but production of that film will likely be held off until after the "Cloverfield" sequel.

Its box office dropped 68.3 percent from the opening weekend. Based on that backlash the only way a sequel may be viable is if it's done cheaply. I know I'm not inclined to see a sequel.
