We know that production on Ridley Scott’s second Prometheus film will begin in February, but now the director has revealed that he’s looking to make three more (including the second one).
Scott had the following to say:
“It won’t be in the next one. It will be in the one after this one or maybe even a fourth film before we get back into the Alien franchise. The whole point of it is to explain the Alien franchise and to explain the how and why of the creation of the Alien itself. I always thought of the Alien as kind of a piece of bacterial warfare. I always thought that that original ship, which I call the Croissant, was a battleship, holding these biomechanoid creatures that were all about destruction.”
This is very interesting as Jon Spaihts’ original script for the first Prometheus was a direct prequel to Alien, but it looks we’ll now be waiting a while in the Prometheus series for big connections to Alien.
Prometheus 2 begins filming in February, 2016.
Thoughts on what Ridley said? Are you excited about the prospect of three more Prometheus films?
