This news comes just after a report surfaced revealing Netflix paid $50 million for The Cloverfield Paradox, which was confirmed by The Wrap.
The Cloverfield Paradox currently has a 19% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a vastly lower score than 2016’s 10 Cloverfield Lane (90%) and even the original Cloverfield (77%) from 2008.
Their source claimed the deal for The Cloverfield Paradox was a “one-off” that made the film “immediately profitable” for the studio.
The Wrap first reported on Overlord keeping its theatrical release date.
