Cloverfield Remake Still In The Balance
13 November 2008 5:30 PM, PST Cloverfield <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1060277/> director Matt Reeves <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0716257/> is eager to make a sequel to the hit movie - but he is struggling to think of a storyline. The cult horror thriller grossed more than $170 million (GBP115 million) worldwide despite being shot on a relatively low budget of $25 million (GBP17 million). Fans are eager to see a second installment but Reeves admits he and producer J.J. Abrams <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0009190/> are struggling to come up with new ideas. He says, "At times it's gone dormant and then it's come back up again. There are a couple ideas that have potential but we haven't quite cracked it yet." Reeves also revealed he may consider giving up the director's hot seat if he can't find a breakthrough. He adds: "There was the thought that maybe we'd bring in some young exciting people and we'd produce their take. "I don't know at this point... I think if we find something that would be incredibly fun to make and that we would want to watch then that's what would push it over the top. It's a weird puzzle." http://www.imdb.com/news/ni0605525/
