So many questions.

Are they going to call the movie “Helldivers 2”? because I haven’t seen Helldivers 1 yet.

Does this writer not know that there are already FIVE Starship Troopers movies, each worst than the last? News of a 6th film isn’t exactly stirring excitement in my loins.

Does Sony think claiming they’re “going back to the original book” is a good thing in this case? Heinlein’s novel has none of the political satire that Verhoeven injected into the story, and that audiences associate with the property. Starship Troopers played straight is… well, it would be the original Starship Troopers, but not nearly as interesting.

Maybe they'll do it like 'Troll 2' and just go right to the sequel
