Answering fan questions on the 2000 AD Online forum, Dredd 3D writer/producer Alex Garland (28 Days Later, Sunshine) revealed that his hopes for the live action Judge Dredd universe go well beyond sequels.

Dredd 3D is in cinemas from 7 September 2012, and you should definitely read the entire Q&A this is lifted from.
