But, seeing as the first two Cloverfield movies didn’t connect in such a direct fashion, this is one God Particle theory that might not pan out.
The fact that 10 Cloverfield Lane was a Cloverfield movie was kept from its cast throughout production on the film – and assuming that the reports about God Particle are accurate, it sounds as though that practice is being carried over to the third Cloverfield film.
Reports have since emerged claiming that God’s Particle is indeed part of the Cloverfield brand and that Bad Robot plans to continue expanding the Cloverfield universe with even more films down the line.
However God Particle ultimately does (or does not) connect to Cloverfield, there’s certainly more to recommend the film beyond its ties to a franchise.
