Cloverfield Movies: Release Order
The Cloverfield franchise is a science fiction anthology series created by J.J. Abrams, with each film telling a standalone story in different genres and styles. The films are loosely connected through the Cloververse - a shared universe where interdimensional phenomena cause various catastrophic events.
The original Cloverfield (2008) is a found-footage monster film following a group of friends during a devastating attack on New York City. 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016) shifts to psychological thriller territory with a woman trapped in an underground bunker. The Cloverfield Paradox (2018) provides a cosmic horror explanation for the franchise's events through a space station experiment that tears holes in reality across multiple dimensions and timelines.
