J.J. Abrams tells Sci-Fi Wire that he's not too keen on a "Cloverfield" sequel, but would rather work on a whole new concept with the same group of people (chiefly writer Drew Goddard and director Matt Reeves).

"We're talking about it. But the truth is there's another idea that I'd rather do with the same people than do a sequel. It's a whole new thing."

He does admit that "Drew [Goddard] and Matt [Reeves] both, separately, have really good ideas for what [Cloverfield 2] could be. So I don't know. We'll see. I know the studio wants" it."
