It’s On the Grid reports Contagion 2 is an open writing assignment at Warner Bros. with the film’s original writer, Scott Z. Burns, serving as a producer. That means the they’re fielding pitches.
Right now, of course, it’s unknown if Steven Soderbergh will be back to direct – but something is telling me he won’t given his upcoming film slate. You have to wonder if Warner Bros. is looking to continue this series direct-to-DVD.
Then again, if the writer/script they select is strong enough, perhaps you’ll be seeing more Contagion return to the big screen after all.
