This Cloverfield 2 Pitch Is Better For The Franchise Than The Version Currently In Development

10 Cloverfield Lane 2 remains a possibility, and one that makes a stronger case for a Cloverfield continuation than the upcoming Cloverfield 2. The original Cloverfield first hit theaters in 2008, utilizing an ingenious viral marketing campaign that successfully built an aura of mystery around the secretive project. The franchise has stuck by its secretive roots ever since, playing its cards close to the chest with every Cloverfield sequel by using fake production names, surprise releases, and non-traditional sequels to build the franchise’s off-kilter brand.
