" Neill Blomkamp has revealed that he is working on the script for his follow-up to last year&amp;#039;s sleeper hit District 9. The South African-born director told the Los Angeles Times that his next film, which has secured financing from Media Rights Capital, will be another sci-fi project. &amp;quot;It is science fiction and it has many sociopolitical ideas that interest me,&amp;quot; Blomkamp said. &amp;quot;Those ideas are wrapped up inside something that is like a Hollywood action film.&amp;quot; The filmmaker noted that he intends to keep the budget for the untitled picture lower than traditional blockbusters: &amp;quot;This next movie will cost more than District 9 but it will cost much, much less than the big summer films. You can do a lot for less now.&amp;quot; Blomkamp also confirmed that he has turned down several offers to helm high-cost Hollywood productions because he wants to hang on to creative control on his movies. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been offered films - a lot of films, in fact - with seriously high budgets, and I&amp;#039;ve turned them all down,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;Once the budgets get bigger, you can&amp;#039;t do what you want as a director, unless you&amp;#039;re Peter Jackson or James Cameron.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
