Matt Reeves says the story is still being hatched for Cloverfield 2
"Cloverfield 2 will most likely not be the next movie because that's still in the really nascent stages. We haven't really had time to get together and talk about what that would be. That journey will probably be a bit longer, when we find that idea that we really get excited about. We're still hatching the story. It has yet to be hatched. It was funny. Someone said to me the other day, 'Yeah, we hear you're going to get the band back together.' I said, 'Yeah, but at this stage, we're just talking about getting the band back together. We actually haven't gotten the band back together.'
Since Cloverfield 2 won't be Matt Reeves next movie, I had to ask if he did have something more concrete lined up. He plans to try and shoot his smaller, character-driven project, The Invisible Woman, along with another, bigger project, back-to-back:
"I haven't decided what I'm doing next. One of the exciting things for me was that the movie (Let Me In) was well-received, even though it didn't do well at the box office. The people who have seen it really enjoyed it, which is exciting for me because I really care a lot about the movie and it's bringing in a lot of interesting opportunities. I'm reading a lot of scripts and novels and going to a lot of meetings to discuss projects, but I haven't decided what's next, so I don't know what's next. I'm reading a lot and hopefully we'll be able to say what I'm doing within the next month or two. I really want to continue to press and try to make this smaller project that I've been trying to make since before Cloverfield. It's a project called The Invisible Woman. It's sort of a character thriller. It's the anatomy of this woman's desperation. It's the same sort of storytelling that I did in Let Me In. It's an intimate character story, so I'm excited to do that to. Probably what I would do is find the next project and find a way to marry that schedule to the bigger project. So, hopefully, we could do two in a row and then maybe Cloverfield 2."
Be sure to check back in the near future for my full interview with Matt Reeves for Let Me In, which arrives on Blu-ray and DVD on February 1.
Cloverfield 2 is in development .

I agree, @mixlexic - You could easily do Cloverfield 2 with maybe some other young punk filming the whole thing or the military. Will be interesting to see what happens.... and when it happens.

No interest in a sequel to Cloverfield even though I love it, I heard sometime ago that a sequel would possibly be the same night from a different perspective, the militarys experience perhaps. Think that would be too much like "Aliens". Fact remains that I have enjoyed Reeves work I liked "Let Me In" almost as much as the Swedish original, thought it was an excellent companion peice.

I think taking too long for a sequel might make cloverfield fans loose interest little by little unless is a big budget project or something and they need more time to make it right (which I dont think it is) Reeves and whoever is in charged should have taken advantage of the "hype" the first cloverfield created and make that sequel a bit sooner for like a 2011 or 2012 release

@Joshua. I liked Cloverfield - can't wait for the sequel. And it's "comment", not "commit".

Hated the first one with that annoying camera shooting (great trick to hide the low budget. Hated the characters and then we got a Teletubby on acid. Just give us the real Godzilla already. and not the oversizs iguana in American Godzilla. Original writers of Pirates Caribbean had Godzilla vs The Griffin battle at the World Trade Center. Only the Bkyln Bridge sequence survived and they screwed that up. They can keep CF2.

The black character is the only one to survive. That sounds a bit ironical, huh? Most horrors/thrillers, they are like the first ones killed off in some ridiculous fashion :P
