Ridley Scott says next Alien movie already written, could shoot in 2018

Last week, we ran our set visit for 20th Century Fox‘s upcoming Alien: Covenant, but The Sydney Morning Herald also ran theirs (from a different shoot day) where filmmaker and franchise founder Ridley Scott stated that the next Alien movie is already written and that they are planning for a 2018 shoot.

“You’ve got to assume to a certain extent success and from that you’d better be ready,” Scott said. “You don’t want a two-year gap. So I’ll be ready to go again next year.” 

If there was any doubt that 79-year-old Scott is game to keep expanding this universe — the prequel saga is planned as a four-film cycle starting with Prometheus — he added, “If you really want a franchise, I can keep cranking it for another six. I’m not going to close it down again. No way.”

Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created with Alien: Covenant, a new chapter in his groundbreaking Alien franchise. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world. When they uncover a threat beyond their imagination, they must attempt a harrowing escape.

Alien: Covenant stars Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston, Billy Crudup, Danny McBride, Demián Bichir, Carmen Ejogo, Amy Seimetz, Jussie Smollett, Callie Hernandez, Nathaniel Dean, Alexander England, Benjamin Rigby, and James Franco.

Jack Paglen (Transcendence) and Michael Green (Green Lantern) provided the Alien: Covenant screenplay. Alien: Covenant will open in theaters on May 19.

RIDLEY SCOTT SAYS NEILL BLOMKAMP'S ALIEN MOVIE IS DEAD

Alien director Ridley Scott has shot down hopes of Neill Blomkamp's Alien movie ever seeing the light of day, suggesting the project is essentially dead.

In an interview with Allocine, when Scott was asked about the possibility of Alien 5 still coming to fruition, he told the outlet that he thinks the project "will never see the light."

He went on to note that "there was never a scenario, just an idea that evolved into a pitch of ten pages." Scott said he was involved as a producer, but the project "did not go any further because Fox decided that [it] did not want to do it."

In October 2015, Blomkamp—whose directorial credits include District 9, Chappie and Elysium—announced the film was put on hold for the time being and that he was moving on to other projects.

Meanwhile, Scott recently said he has plans to make four more Alien movies following the release of Alien: Covenant, which opens in theaters on May 19.

O Vasco diz isso de todos os filmes. Eu cheguei agora do cinema e digo categoricamente que este foi o pior dos Aliens. Conseguiu ser pior que o 3 e que o Prometheus. Que grande trampa.

Não é de todos, de certo e determinado tipo/género sim, sem dúvida.

Este por exemplo, e sobretudo depois de toda a gente a dizer mal vou com expectativas muito baixas e provavelmente não acharei assim tão mau.
