Earlier this week news hit that a secret JJ Abrams project would have a trailer debut on Iron Man 2. That trailer has been electronically locked up preventing any leaks of what it could be until now. Speculation was a Cloverfield prequel or sequel. Now Slashfilm has some additional details on Super 8 (which may or may not be the real title for the eventual movie).
- I can confirm that it is not a Cloverfield sequel or prequel.
- It is written and directed by JJ Abrams.
- Yes, produced by Steven Spielberg and Amblin Entertainment (not Dreamworks).
- And it takes place in the late 1979.
