Joe Cornishs sci-fi actiekomedie Attack the Block werd dit jaar prima ontvangen. Niet zo heel verrassend dus dat er momenteel wordt gesproken over een tweede deel. Regisseur Cornish gaf tijdens de New York City Comic-Con aan dat hij zelfs al benaderd is om een Amerikaanse remake, een sequel en/of een tv spin-off van Attack the Block te gaan maken. Hierbij gaf hij als kanttekening dat het momenteel nog te vroeg is om hier verder iets concreets over te kunnen zeggen.
Weve had approaches for a remake and a sequel. Weve had approaches for a TV show to spin off it. But its very early days, you know. So its not out of the question but very early days, and Id certainly like to do something different for my next thing if I get a chance to do a next thing.
Mocht het uiteindelijk gaan gebeuren, dan heeft Cornish wel al enkele ideeën klaarliggen. Dit geldt ook voor hoofdrolspeler John Boyega. De regisseur legde het publiek één van hun ideeën voor:
[Boyega] keeps coming up with amazing ideas. He has this image of a bigger alien attack on London, as if the wave we saw in Attack the Block was just the [first] wave and theres another wave of bigger creatures. And he described to me this image of Moses leading a whole army of hood kids across the Thames, next to the houses of Parliament No, his image was even better. He had an image of Moses on a police horse. You know the police in London who have those horses they use in riots somehow Moses has got onto one of those horses. So hes on a horse leading this army of South London kids across the river to take on this bigger wave of aliens. So yeah, its really fun to think of stuff like that and think of what we could do.
