Since Neil Blomkamp’s probably not going to be doing Halo as his next film, we were curious what he might be working on next. (see our full interview for all the details). Blomkamp revealed just a few tantalizing tidbits about his next project. Hit the jump to hear what he had to say.

Preparations for his next film have only recently begun. According to Blomkamp:

I’ve only very recently started thinking about that, cause I finished District 9 like a month ago…It’s like, 2 years of complete and utter dedication and then it just turns off like that.

As for what it would be:

I’ve got one science fiction idea that I’m absolutely in love with, which I’m pretty sure is going to be my next film. 99% sure…It’s totally original, it’s my own story…It’s set on another planet, but it’s cool. It’s violent, very violent, and very unique hopefully. We’ll see.
