While basking on the
success of The Martian, Ridley Scott has decided to use the press tour for the
film to start promoting his next project, Alien: Paradise Lost, the much-anticipated
sequel to Prometheus. So far the filmmaker has disclosed that the follow-up
will see Elizabeth (Noomi Rapace) and David (Michael Fassbender) travel to the
Engineers home world to try to get some answers as to the why, and how, and
where the Alien was created, and that there will be some connections to Ellen Ripley, the character Sigourney Weaver played in the original Alien franchise. Now, in a new interview, Scott adds that Elizabeth and David will not be making the trip alone, as a new team of travelers will
join what's left of the group from the first movie.
"It’s going to
be it’s own separate thing because they are going to the planet of the
Engineers and they are going to see what happened there. It was a disaster. And
they will be in that alien craft that takes them there, but with a new group
that’s incoming, a new group of travelers in the beginning of the first act."
Although I would have preferred
if he had not divulged when this new group is set to appear, the fact that they
exist in the movie is intriguing. Are they rescuers? Are they fellow
scientists? Are they sent there, or do they just stumble upon Elizabeth and her
companion head?
Alien: Paradise Lost
is scheduled to hit theaters on May 30, 2017.
