David Oyelowo, Gugu Mbatha-Raw to Star in J.J. Abrams’ GOD PARTICLE
Following the success of 10 Cloverfield Lane, Paramount is moving quickly on another J.J. Abrams-produced property with David Oyelowo and Gugu Mbatha-Raw in negotiations to star in the sci-fi thriller God Particle. Julius Onah is directing the film with Abrams producing through his Bad Robot banner.
Originally set up at Paramount InSurge before its shuttering, the long-in-development pic takes place in the near future. It centers on a team of astronauts who make a terrifying discovery that challenges all they know about the fabric of reality, as they desperately fight for their survival. The film will hit theaters on Feb. 24, 2017, with production scheduled to start sometime in the second quarter.
Oyelowo recently finished production on A United Kingdom costarring Rosamund Pike, as well as Disney’s Queen of Katwe. He is also shooting American Express.
Mbatha-Raw most recently appeared as Will Smith’s wife in Concussion and has the Civil War drama Free State of Jones, opposite Matthew McConaughey, bowing this summer. She can be seen next in Disney’s 2017 live-action Beauty and the Beast adaptation.

Comments: Hmm, could this be another Cloverfield-related movie in disguise?
