The rumor mill went into overdrive again last week as Babak Anvari, the director brought onboard to direct the first true sequel to CLOVERFIELD, gave just a few scraps of development details regarding the long-delayed project. Nothing much in the way of new info was offered, but I guess fans should just be happy that the goddamn thing is actually still being considered at this point.
This got me thinking about the very first poster I saw for CLOVERFIELD, way back circa late 2007. Though I love the theatrical poster we ended up with (featuring a headless Statue of Liberty and replete with a number of details and Easter eggs), Paramount’s teaser poster was horrifying in its simplicity. Showing a herculean shadow over a cramped and murky Manhattan, it offered only one word of advice: HIDE.
