A new "Starship Troopers" movie is in the works. "District 9" filmmaker Neill Blomkamp is writing & directing. It will be based on the 1959 novel and it won't be a remake of the 1997 movie. [2025-05] (comicbookmovie.com)

There hasn't been any new news since around May. But that hasn't stopped Imdb from churning out "articles" that are merely copy-and-pastes from many months old info like the article I posted.

It's the obvious route for the film adaptation to take I guess, although I am 100% certain that instead of adapting the wacky 70s sci fi elements and playing them straight what they're going to end up doing is some awful compromise where the "plot" is closer to the book but they try to retain references to the film and it'll just end up being a mess that sucks and gets forgotten until it gets turned into video essay fodder.

Oh so the whole movie is going to open with "Look at my sweet ass power suit that I drop straight down into from lower orbit bro, wanna know how I got here?" Then the next 100 minutes is the scene where Rico, Dizzy and Carmen all talk to the teacher about what being a citizen means and why the liberal removed used to rule were the worst humans ever. This followed by 20 minutes of hum drum action that is basically "Roboman stomps big bugs."
