For the longest time, I didn’t think that Overlord would release. Not because it was in production hell or anything like that, but because it was a part of J. J. Abrams Cloverfield universe and those movies can be announced years in advance before eventually releasing and disappointing audiences worldwide. Thankfully, Overlord was taken out of the Cloverfield universe because it was “too different.” It was then treated as a normal movie. It had a normal announcement earlier in the year, had a normal trailer release, and… here we are.
That’s really all of the interesting facts I have about Overlord for you. Now, for your reading pleasure, here are several paragraphs where I proceed to gush over how Overlord rocks HARD.
