In a recent interview director Ridley Scott spoke briefly about the future of the Alien franchise. He's confirmed that discussions have taken place, but also stresses the franchise needs to evolve in order to stay fresh.
With Prometheus, Ridley Scott started a new chapter in the Alien franchise, but one that not all fans appreciated. Now with follow-up Alien: Covenant, Scott tries to make amends with a return to the classic horror that kicked off this series.
Ridley Scott quashes the idea that District 9 creator Neil Blomkamp will helm an Alien 5. Apparently because Fox studies doesn't want it.
Wondering whatever happened to David and Shaw after they hijacked an alien ship and decided to head out on a galactic roadtrip to the homeworld of the Engineers at the end of Prometheus? We finally know the answer now.
These new pictures from the upcoming Alien: Covenant ask more questions than they answer. Questions that we might not like the answers to.
We all want to see our feared Xenomorphs on the big screen in the new Alien: Covenant film, but we are likely also getting a whole lot of engineers as well.
If what Fassbender teases is true, Alien fans are going to be very happy...
The crew in Prometheus didn’t bother me, not even the infamous ‘rolling ship’ scene. Nor did the re-appropriation of Alien’s set designs – in fact, that was pretty cool.

Honestly, I haven’t had my intelligence assaulted like that since Trevor tried explaining where he thought babies came from. At a recent press conference in Sydney the director spoke a bit about the upcoming (recently renamed) sequel Alien: Covenant, a …
It would seem that Ridley Scott is in fact not losing his marbles. After it was reported yesterday that the veteran director used a new title to refer to his long awaited Prometheus sequel, some thought that maybe Scott had maybe got it confused with another project he was working on. After all, it was just the other day that Prometheus 2 was …
What’s in a name? A Prometheus sequel by any other name is still just a Prometheus sequel, right? Well, I certainly hope so because either director Ridley Scott’s memory is going (hey, the man is 77!), or he’s going through some kind of identity crisis. Just recently we heard that the upcoming sequel to not-an-Alien-prequel Prometheus was going to be …
