I dunno, I love that the ending is so ambiguous. My headcannon is that there have always been new children, but they are all saved and hidden by the resistance movement, on an island to protect them from the world.
Making an actual sequel would require them to make so many decision about their world, and similarly to the Mass Effect sequel I think it can only disappoint.
For sequel, Clive could have survived. The Human Project should have had other success in protecting children from establishment, There could have been a lot of children on that Island if fertile mothers were also taken there. Teenagers from that island could be a studio-friendly plot line. There is massive plot possibilities, but the uniqueness of the original was global despair from a lack of human sustainability. In an older more decayed world, the low hanging fruit for plot is a corrupt dead end establishment clinging to power instead of enabling the human project.
Don’t look up had very poor plot around theme, except for “I am for the jobs the comet will provide” line. It was still a worthwhile movie. If the bar is better than original or disappointment, then ok, but it’s easy to be much better than don’t look up, IMO.

Ugh, that would make the original movie actively worse. Don’t do that.
