Bad Robot’s Upcoming Film ‘Kolma’ Could Be the Fifth ‘Cloverfield’ Movie?
Is J.J. Abrams bringing Daisy Ridley into the CloverVerse?
It seems that literally anything is possible when it comes to the Cloverfield Cinematic Universe, which to date has three installments: Cloverfield, 10 Cloverfield Lane and the just released The Cloverfield Paradox. As we recently learned, a World War II-set film titled Overlord is the franchise’s fourth, and now a fifth is already being rumored.
It’s no secret by now that producer J.J. Abrams has been turning initially unrelated sci-fi movies into Cloverfield-adjacent movies, as he did with both 10 Cloverfield Lane and The Cloverfield Paradox, which has essentially led fans to believe that every single Bad Robot production *could* end up being related. And we’ve been consistently shown that we’re not out of line in thinking that, most recently when the rumors surrounding Overlord were confirmed to actually be true. Yes, that movie is indeed being Clover-fied.
Reddit user RealJohnGillman *may* have uncovered the fifth Cloverfield film, positing that Bad Robot’s upcoming Kolma is part of the unconventional multiverse. The film, a remake of the 2003 Israeli TV movie Kol Ma (All I’ve Got), has Daisy Ridley attached.
Here’s the full theory (definitely *not* yet confirmed), as laid out by Gillman…
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
