Well, it appears that despite initially dropping from discussion, Blomkamp revealed in a recent article about the projects OATS is making that The Gone World is still his next full-length film, and that Fox is still the distributor. In addition, with the recent revelations about the Terminator series' upcoming new installments retroactively erasing everything after T2 and Jim Cameron's involvement in this upcoming series, there is talk that he could easily work to use his clout to convince Fox to come back onboard with Blomkamp's film, and in the way that he had intended. If that was done, there is still the talk of whether Fox will let Ridley finish his (ever-shifting and increasingly floundering) vision for the Covenant sequel, or just yank his chain. I guess time will let us see where things go.
