The Cloverfield Paradox surprised Film Twitter
The film is lead by women of color and produced by JJ Abrams.
When Ava DuVernay tweets that history is in the making, everyone pays attention. As a legendary and historic filmmaker herself, it would have to be something truly incredible. And, as usual, Ava DuVernay did not disappoint. Netflix will premier The Cloverfield Paradox immediately after the Super Bowl.
The film will be lead by Elizabeth Debicki, Daniel Bruhl, Gugu Mbatha Raw, Chris O’Dowd, Ziyi Zhang and David Oyelowo. It was directed by Julius Onah, produced by JJ Abrams, and was written by Oren Uziel. This will be the first time a film of this magnitude will be rolled out in this fashion. Absolutely no promotional material was released before the Super Bowl reveal, which was a short promo trailer that can be seen above.
Such a big roll out was just as big of a deal as Ava predicted. Check out the responses below.
