‘Skyline’ Sequel ‘Beyond Skyline’ Surfaces With Poster

Relatively small movie SKYLINE is to get a sequel, BEYOND SKYLINE. The news broke earlier this week during Cannes with a Facebook page promoting the new endeavor going live shortly after. SKYLINE was released at around the same time as Aaron Eckhart’s soldiers versus alien’s pic BATTLE: LOS ANGELES, which given the higher profile leading man stole most of the publicity away from SKYLINE. Neither film made a great deal of money but SKYLINE gained a cult audience and that audience has allowed the green light on a sequel.

The original writer and producer Liam O’Donnell will go one role further this time and direct the sequel, taking over from the Brothers Strause. SKYLINE wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea and had a rather strange and twisted ending which was also handily rather open-ended. Apparently it was always hoped that the film would branch out and become a franchise and with this news it would appear that they might well be on its way.

No plot details have been released yet and it is unclear whether Eric Balfour, who played main man Jarrod, will return, though I’d be interested in seeing how that would happen given the fate of his character the first time around. A poster however has been released and it would point to the teaming up of alien and human to destroy the invaders, check it out below:
