Cloverfield director plans for sequel, Invisible Woman

Matt Reeves is still planning on directing a sequel for Cloverfield, but not until he gets another thriller on screen. The Invisible Woman will be Reeves next project, though it was originally slated before he hopped on board with J.J. Abrams to create “our own national monster,” as he called the beast in an interview with the LAist.

Although it has yet to be posted in the IMDb catalog, Reeves told MTV that they are moving from pre-production to full-fledged filming soon. The plot follows the plight of a woman who enters a life of crime to save her family, a Machiavellian concept that is more like Hitchcock’s Marnie than the 1940 flick that shares Invisible's title.

This is not the first time that Reeves has penned a screenplay, with both The Yards and The Pallbearer as notches in his script-writing belt. He also co-wrote Under Seige 2, not to mention his experience from Felicity should coincide with the protagonist’s strong, feminine description.
