Variety: 20th Century Fox has closed a deal with director Neill Blomkamp to develop a new “Alien” movie, sources confirm.
The untitled sci-fi project is separate from “Prometheus 2,” which Fox is still making with Ridley Scott.
Blomkamp, who directed “District 9″ and the upcoming Sony feature “Chappie,” had been teasing the project in recent months but said the extra-terrestrial reboot was likely abandoned. It was supposed to star “Alien” veteran Sigourney Weaver.
When a messiah is needed, does it matter how a planet gets one? That's what we'll discuss in our Dune Part Two Review!
On the big screen, numerous Dark Knights flaunted their abs and flexed their muscles for the audience; however, Christian Bale's Batman physique remains the greatest.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is the latest of the rebooted Planet of the Apes series and is a solid movie despite not being on par with the previous movies.
DUDE
Niel Blomkamp is a Sci-fi genius.
“Prometheus,” also distributed by Fox, was “loosely based” on the “Alien” franchise....
What? Hahahahaha this writer isn't for real, right? I dunno what kind of research they have done or if they have ever really watched the films, but that is like the most ridiculous thing I have read for a long time! LOL
I just hope Neill can make it justice.
If anything it should be a total reboot because I feel like there is nothing to add to the Ellen Ripley story. Alien 3 was okay, flawed but ended allright. Aliens Colonial marines the game never happened (supposedly canon) and neither did Alien 4. Alien 4 had some decent ALIENS in it, but not much else and it just felt like a mess to me.
Alien: Isolation I feel could actually translate to a decent movie.
Amanda Ripleys search for truth or closure. But maybe just a plain reboot would be for the best.
Great news!
