Cloverfield Sequel Lands New Release Date
Earlier this year, J. J. Abrams surprised fans with a sequel to 2008’s found-footage alien film ‘Cloverfield’, titled ’10 Cloverfield Lane’. The film was a huge success, renewing interest in the franchise for fans. We reported in late October that J.J. Abrams’ third ‘Cloverfield’ film, titled ‘God Particle’, had quietly entered production. Recently, The Wrap caught up with actor David Oyelowo in an attempt to lean more about ‘God Particle’. They did not learn much, but he did reveal the following: “Every single day we were on that set, we were agog with the inventiveness and innovation, between the technology, the story, and the audacity of what we were trying to accomplish. It’s an incredibly exciting and innovative process of storytelling. It’s incredibly surprising.” In the ‘God Particle’ a team of astronauts make a shocking discovery and end up fighting for survival in what is being described as an “altered reality”.

Did The Walking Dead Just Kill Off……??
WARNING! SPOILERS! Back in November we reported that Chandler Riggs might be leaving The Walking Dead.

Robert Kirkman might have just killed of Riggs’ character Carl in the latest issue of the comic. While deaths do not always match between the comic and the series, if he has chosen to kill off the character in the books it does make you wonder about him being killed on the show. In comic issue 161, the Whisperer War is in full swing. The Hilltop mansion, lit by flaming arrows, is on fire . Carl, Maggie and Lydia have escaped, only
