Regardless of what happens with that, we’re definitely going to be getting Alien: Paradise Lost at some point in the next couple of years, and its director expanded on the decision to use that title in a recent interview at the United Kingdom premiere of The Martian. It’s exactly the same story. It’s not clear what stage of development that film is at right now, but with Scott’s film having Alien as its lead title, it looks like Blompkamp is still perfecting his untitled film. If engineers are the forerunners of us, and therefore were creators of life forms in places that were possible for biology to function, who created that?
The conclusion of Ridley Scott’s “Prometheus” promised to expand on the robust themes the film introduced.
Finally, the filmmaker was quizzed on Michael Fassbender’s role in Alien: Paradise Lost. Though, many people were left wondering why Scott didn’t direct the 1986 sequel, Aliens. Movie goers want both iconic filmmakers to continue producing original work, but neither franchise is worth this type of investment.
Its doesnt feel like a true Alien movie without franchise stalwart Sigourney Weaver playing Ellen Ripley, one of the greatest action heroes of all time. This will go out first. There hasn’t been much on it as of yet, however it’s just now been revealed that the sequel to Prometheus won’t necessarily be a sequel as such.
“In a way it is ‘Prometheus 2,'” Ridley said.

Though it takes the name of John Milton’s 17th century epic poem, Scott makes it clear that the similarities don’t run to deep. As for Neill Blomkamp’s “Alien 5“, production was pushed back to give way to Scott’s “Prometheus” sequels.
