I'm conflicted. Blomkamp has made good movies. Not one has matched District 9 so far, but he's been ok.
On the other hand, considering today's political context, the amount of pressure that is gonna be on this remake, to turn it into an exercise of scoring political points... it's gonna be insane. I don't see how this would be allowed to be just a good modern adaptation of the novel.
It's going to turn into another Bateman/Homelander situation where people root for the "evil white guys" even harder
A non-subversive adaptation of the book would be the highest pinnacle of kino

Visually it would definitely be a great movie. All of his work focuses on sci-fi and alien stuff. It's right up his alley. The question is whether he'd get the story, characters and political world building right.
