Neill Blomkamp Announces ‘District 9’ Sequel, ‘District 10’

It’s been over a decade since Neill Blomkamp blurred the line between sci-fi and horror with District 9.

Blomkamp revealed on Twitter that a sequel is indeed finally on its way with Copley returning along with the original’s co-writer Terri Tatchell penning the screenplay.
