Alien Prequel Story Leaked!!




***BEWARE OF POSSIBLE MAJOR SPOILERS***




The long awaited Alien prequel sees a group of terraformers (the space jockeys as seen in the first film), moving from planet to planet in order to make them habitable. In tow are two human slaves, who are forced via mind control to engage in sexual activities – the twist? They’re both male!

Now this is a twist fans won’t be expecting. In a shock turn of events the details of Ridley Scott’s Alien prequel have been leaked online, only for Fox to order the website in question (Whatsplaying.com.au) to take the story down again – but not before somebody managed to grab a screenshot first!

While this does have a bit of a whiff of hoax about it, it was a story too interesting to simply pass up! So taking this with a pinch of salt for now, here are the details of the original story:

Quote:
The script (by John Spaihts and recently rewritten by Damon Lindelof) tells of the space jockeys traveling from planet to planet and terraforming them.

The space jockeys are holding captive of two human slave farmers named Fin and Karik and force them (via mind control) to engage in sexual activity. (The twist: they’re both male).

There will be a black Vasquez-esque spaceship crew member named Oliver.

Gemma Arterton was offered to play a female crew member named Truks.

The aliens are used by the space jockeys (known as “Growers” in the script) in their terraforming processes as some sort of biological tools.

The signature alien won’t appear until the latter half of the film when it fully develops into it (this hints that we’ll be seeing different and new forms of aliens).

The editor calls the film a hard science fiction part psychological drama.

Ridley has met with Lance Henriksen to appear in the film.

The idea behind the man-on-man action is apparently that the growers want their human slaves to breed. They’ve no idea about human genders as they are a single sex race and so things get a little… confused, leading to what the original story described as “Brokeback Alien”.
It would be cool if this twist did turn out to be true, lets be honest here it’s certainly untrodden ground, and if said slaves are conscious of their actions while being forced into this it’ll make for some pretty harrowing scenes.

What do you think? Bull or believable?
