David Oyelowo says 'God Particle' is a different kind of movie

 

David Oyelowo is gearing up to dip his toe into the genre once more for God Particle, Julius Onah’s 2017 sci-fi film. It may stand as the third entry into Bad Robot’s loosely connected Cloverfield universe, but don’t expect it to hold much resemblance to Nolan’s mind-boggling spectacle.

Oyelowo who spoke with The Wrap concerning God Particle “Every single day we were on that set we were agog with the inventiveness and innovation, between the technology, the story and the audacity of what we were trying to accomplish. The only connection I would say is both films involve space and both films involve me. That’s about as much connection I can see between the two.”

He’s painting in broad strokes, essentially, but those worried that God Particle will be a rehash of something that’s already come before needn’t worry – when it comes to Interstellar, at least. God Particle, also starring Elizabeth Debicki, Chris O’Dowd, Daniel Brühl, Ziyi Zhang, Aksel Hennie, and John Ortiz, is on course for a theatrical release on February 24, 2017.
