In an era where Hollywood seems obsessed with rebooting or remaking every intellectual property under the sun, it's rare for an original idea to take root. But every so often, it happens. Such as in 2009, when one of the biggest original sci-fi hits of the decade debuted with District 9.
It felt like everyone saw the film when it came out, and had nothing but good things to say about it and it’s director, Neil Blomkamp. It even managed to score a few Oscar nominations, including one for Best Picture. So one would think that a sequel would be fast-tracked as soon as possible. However, said sequel has never manifested. The reasons range from Blomkamp becoming a rising star in Hollywood, as well as his follow-up efforts.
