Ridley Scott: 'Alien: Covenant' Is First of 3 Films Before Linking Up With Original 'Alien'

THR: Ridley Scott confirmed that he is planning another two Prometheus sequels to follow Alien: Covenant before the Prometheus storyline meets up with the original 1979 Alien.

Alien: Covenant and the following two films will be origin stories, answering the “very basic questions posed in Alien: why the alien, who might have made it and where did it come from?” Scott revealed at a press conference in Sydney where he is starting pre-production on Covenant, the first sequel to Prometheus.

Fine by me, though I expect at least one usual suspect to come in here and whinge about it.

Looking forward to them. I just hope there is not a few years between each movie release. Hopefully shoot them back to back and release them yearly... like LoTR and The Hobbit. Unlikey though

Lol I post these articles just to see that suspect's comments.

Though if Scott is going to direct all of these, I honestly don't expect any back to back shoots or yearly releases. Just doesn't seem like something he'd do.

freshslicepizza3068d ago

and there he is haha.

i guess there is quite a bit that can be explained before alien

Haha looked at your name a while back and was like stringer who? Into the 4th season of the wire now.

Don't know why people are so fond of Bell, sheeeeet that guy got played... ;)

I'm 1000000000% positive the people who cry about Prometheus are the ones who were to stupid to get it and it went right over their head....Some people don't like to ever have to turn their brain on when they do things....Those same people are probably the same people who are all for Trump being president

RetrospectRealm3069d ago

I don't know about that... Prometheus did have some problems but it wasn't as bad as people make it out to be.

Everyone is has contracted sequelitis... Its crazy i tell'ya...

Even films that do not need sequels get them (Blade Runner ????).

What the hell, since Hollywood is into sequels so much they might as well give me a Matrix sequel trilogy. Or even a prequel exploring the very 1st chosen one (Neo was the 7th).

As a die hard fan of the alien series I really liked prometheus. I always wanted some orgin movies for the alien franchise so I'm excited for this new trilogy. I just hope that alien 5 still comes out cause I really want a continuation of the story.

RetrospectRealm3068d ago

Maybe Scott will take up Alien 5? I wouldn't be mad with that.

JasonBloodbourne3068d ago

What does this mean for Blomkamps alien film then? I expect his film won't get made any time soon now will it?
