Fox closed the deal. Neill Blomkamp is officially directing the next ALIEN!

I got no words for how bad I want this to happen.
Any movie studio with a bit of brains should jump onto this.

Update: Variety has confirmed that Fox has closed the deal, and that Neill Blomkamp is officially directing the next ALIEN

I'm sure whatever movie studio holds the right to the Alien franchise will do something new with it at some point. No matter how Prometheus 2 will do.
Ridley Scott is getting old and in this day and age of remakes, reboots, prequels, sequels,... it would really surprise me if they don't pick up the Alien franchise once again.

Why is this thread moved? It's about a unofficial project that never got made, not an upcoming movie.

I'm sure V wet his pants when he saw this!

So as far as unmade movies with scripts goes, this ranks somewhere above Tim Burton's Superman Lives (with Nic Cage!) and someplace below Orson Welles' Heart of Darkness....

Definitely did.

This idea had potential - I can see a plotline about Weyland-Yutani being more involved, a corporate politics/bioweapons angle, the derelict spaceship from LV-426 (with the eggs) lifted into a giant storehouse, it's contents (read eggs) emptied, and Ripley disguised as a space jockey, probably sent to the Alien/Space Jockey homeworld under disguise, with Hicks and a new, better, stronger, larger Marines team accompanying her. (Newt is probably held by the corporate honchos, hence blackmailing Ripley into this new mission)

Coulda...woulda...

Sounds good to me. Just love to see someone serious extend the series, like Scott, Cameron, Wachowski Bros, Joss Whedon, maybe Singer.

Good choises.

Also I would like to see Alexandre Bustillo & Julien Maury make an extremely bloody version. Just as a standout. :D
