John Boyega and his Attack the Block director appear to be working on something again

Sure, we all know who John Boyega is now, obviously having nailed his role as Fin in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but before that he was in a small sci-fi film called Attack the Block. Now we could be in the midst of a reunion between Boyega and director Joe Cornish.

“Saw Joe Cornish the other day,” Boyega tweeted on Saturday. “Yes. We are brainstorming. #somethingnew.”

It’s nothing concrete but Cornish has stated in the past that Boyega keeps coming up with great ideas for an Attack the Block sequel.

“He has this image of a bigger alien attack on London, as if the attack we saw in Attack the Block was just the [first] wave and there’s another wave of bigger creatures,” he said. “And he described to me this image of Moses leading a whole army of hood kids across the Thames, next to the houses of Parliament.”

The director also admitted at the time that he’s been approached about “a remake,” “a sequel,” and “a TV show to spin off it.”

Another possibility could be Section 6, Cornish’s passion project that was stifled due to some legal snags.

Boyega has a pretty hectic schedule post-biggest movie ever but Attack the Block was definitely something he enjoyed doing, so lets hope we get some more news on this soon.
