With the barf bags still cooling on the theater floors of the motion-sickness-inducing hit Cloverfield, Paramount is springing into action to ensure that the monster’s reign of terror is far from over.  Variety reports that Cloverfield director Matt Reeves is in talks with the company to make directing the sequel his next project.  If so, it’ll mean Reeves’ other upcoming project, the suspense-thriller The Invisible Woman, will be put on the back burner for now.  Reeves certainly has his mind on Cloverfield possibilities, if recent interviews are any indication.  This from Bloody-Disgusting.com’s chat with Reeves at the film’s premiere:

“While we were on set making the film we talked about the possibilities and directions of how a sequel can go.  The fun of this movie was that it might not have been the only movie being made that night, there might be another movie!  In today’s day and age of people filming their lives on their iphones and handy cams, uploading it to youtube…That was kind of exciting thinking about that.”

Whether or not this immediate sequel business happens will heavily rely on producer J.J. Abrams and screenwriter Drew Goddard hammering out a new story for the sequel in time.  If not, audiences will have to settle for actual youtube footage, which the last time I checked was 90% less ‘terrifying’ and 90% more ‘cats being funny’.
