Will there be a sequel?
Talks of a sequel to District 9 are nothing new - they've been happening since before the movie hit theatres - but now we have something from someone involved with the film. Director Neill Blomkamp has stated that if a second film is made, it will likely be a prequel and not a sequel.
"The concept of aliens in Johannesburg is such an appealing idea to me and the issues of race and how they meet...All of the things that I had going on with it. I wouldn't mind messing around with it again. I'm open to it if the story works and there's a reason to do it. And Wikus is so funny to me, I'm very interested in a sort of passive racist like that. If you go forward it's more of a traditional film but if you go backward I'd be intrigued in that. I'm not so interested in aliens coming back and blowing things up but might be interesting."
Would you rather a prequel, or do you want to see "aliens coming back and blowing things up"?
