The Alien franchise may be returning to the narrative threads established over a decade ago. Ridley Scott, the visionary director who launched the series with his 1979 masterpiece, has confirmed that a new project is in development to potentially conclude his prequel trilogy.

Ridley Scott’s latest blockbuster pairs Jacob Elordi and Margaret Qualley in a new movie guaranteed to spark debate.

"I read and I think about 30 pages, I started to get anxious in case he would drop the ball," Scott says. He didn't.
