Neill Blomkamp's Alien sequel might be on hold, thanks to Ridley Scott's Prometheus sequel - 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Alien: Covenant - but that doesn't mean we're not interested. Thankfully, so is original star Sigourney Weaver who talked about the script during the Alien 30th Anniversary panel at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:San Diego Comic Con. 

"There is an incredible script," Sigourneꦰy starts. "Written and to be directed by Neill Blomkamp who was a fan growing up in South Africa who loved these movies so much that he broke the tapes. When we were working together on Chappie - a movie I lov🥂e - we started chatting about how the series left Ripley."

The actress went on to explain why she hadn't wanted to do a fifth Alien movie - "I didn’t want to go to Earth, I thought going to Earth was a little boring" - before telling fans how the new script came ♊about. "Anyway, that whole first day we started talking about it and four months later I got a script that was so amazing and gives the fans everything they are looking for, plus innovates in a lot of ways with things that just immediately for me became part of the world."

It ♊sounds like there's one hell of an Alien movie to be made here, but with Alien: Covenant taking priority right now, when will we get it? "He has work to do, I have work to do," said Sigourney. "I'm hoping when we finish those job we’ll circle back and start to do it." I hope so too. 

Directed by Ridley Scott and starring Katherine Waterston, Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace, Demওian Bichir, Carmen Ejogo, Jussie Smollett, Amy Seimetz, Callie Hernandez, and Danny McBride, Alien: Covenant will open in the US and UK on August ไ4, 2017.
