11 Years Ago Today, This $102M Movie Ended an Unofficial Sci-Fi Trilogy That Started With a Masterpiece

Neill Blomkamp’s science fiction film, Chappie, was released in theaters on March 6, 2015. The movie centers around Chappie, a robot voiced by Sharlto Copley. While Chappie tells its own complete story, some fans consider it the conclusion to an informal trilogy of sci-fi films Blomkamp directed. These films include District 9 and Elysium. The trilogy started strongly, but unfortunately, each subsequent film performed less well than the last.
