Last time around, Bad Robot pulled the old switcharoo on audiences by sneaking a Cloverfield sequel under the guise of another film with 10 Cloverfield Lane – the first sequel in what J.J Abrams plans to turn into a long-lasting theatrical anthology series. 

Following that reveal, many speculated that the upcoming God Particle from Bad Robot would be the next Cloverfield movie, and now The Wrap reports that * shocking twist! * it is in fact the case! 

Also, as the article goes on to say, we should prepare ourselves for a Cloverfield themed movie every year – it remains to be seen if those films will carry the Cloverfield moniker. 

The plot for God Particle is said to revolve around an American space station that, after an accident with a particle accelerator, suddenly finds that Earth has vanished altogether. Things get stranger when they then pick up traces of another space station nearby. It stars David Oyelowo (Interstellar), John Krasinski (13 Hours), Elizabeth Debicki (The Man From U.N.C.L.E.), Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Concussion), Chris O’Dowd (Thor: The Dark World), Ziyi Zhang (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and Daniel Bruhl (Captain America: Civil War).

God Particle will be directed by Julius Onah (The Girl is in Trouble). Originally scripted by Freaks of Nature and 22 Jump Street scribe Oren Uziel, the project was since rewritten by Star Trek Beyond‘s Doug Jung. 

The film is set for a February 24, 2017 release.
