JJ Abrams Calls Fourth Cloverfield Movie ‘Crazy’

In an interview with Digital Spy, JJ Abrams said that Overlord, the fourth film in the ever-expanding Cloverfield series, will be “crazy.” Here are highlights:

On the release of the Cloverfield Paradox: “It didn’t really feel like it was any fun to release [The Cloverfield Paradox] with everybody knowing that it was coming. Could we possibly do this and keep it a secret and release the thing in the way we did? That felt to me like that’s the spirit of these movies, that’s the spirit of the series. So to talk about what the next one is and what’s going to happen sort of feels counter intuitive.”

On how Overlord will fit into the series: “Overlord … first of all it’s something that I can’t wait for you to see cause the director, Julius Avery, has done an amazing job on it. But the specifics, you know, we should wait and see. But that’s really a crazy movie.”
