That is it, that is all we know so far. I'd love to do a great write-up for this viral video, but I and everyone else knows zilch about this project.
No matter what I'm gonna see this movie. He blew me away with his last project and I have high hopes that he will be a director to watch for many years, if not decades to come.

MattDamonhas forsaken his hair, too. Apparently, the new ‘do (or lack thereof?) is for his role in “Elysium,” director Neill Blomkamp’s follow up to “District 9.” The movie is a futuristic flick—the website teases “zero-g welders” and “quantum networkers”—and in it, Matt plays a hardened convict.

district 9 was freaking awesome. I can;t wait to see how this turns out.

Awful movie , don't know why anyone liked this

The first movie was awesome because it was made with a fraction of the same type of Hollywood movie ($35 million). It was awesome because it wasn't made with the usual formula. It was awesome because they used non-big name actors.
And all of that is going away...
So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

I know right? What a concept! A movie actually making it on the merit of the story instead of celerity actors, overdone CGI, and tons of gun fight scenes.
Luckily, D9 had the good story, but the producers also did a great job getting talented actors, decent special effects, and the fight scenes were on par with huge budget Hollywood blockbusters.
