Neill Blomkamp Shooting District 9 Sequel This Fall?


MarketSaw, who usually has reliable contacts is reporting Neill Blomkmp is not only making the sequel to District 9. The summer sci-fi blockbuster went on to earn 4 Oscar nominations including Best Picture. With the working title District 10 it's currently in pre-production and could start shooting as early as this October. I'm not sure where this puts Blompkamp's other original sci-fi film but I'm on board either way. The film will be shooting again in South Africa which gave the film such a intense backdrop. It will also shoot in New Zealand where I expect most of the shooting will be on studio sound stages. This information comes from their source at WETA. Nothing is official yet so take this news as just rumors.
