Ridley Scott Reveals The Surprising ALIEN Themed Title Of PROMETHEUS 2
Following the recent reveal that Sir Ridley Scott may be working on as many as three Prometheus sequels, the director has now revealed the title of the first of those, and it definitely won't be what you're expecting. Could this lead to Alien 5 being scrapped though?
In hindsight, it may have been a little foolish to assume that the Prometheus sequel would simply be titled Prometheus 2. After all, the ship that the first movie was at least in part named after was destroyed in the last instalment, so that makes this very different official title at least somewhat expected. However, what is a surprise is the fact that it's going to have "Alien" in there! "Actually, it’s going to be called Alien: Paradise Lost, so Prometheus 2 isn’t what it’s really going to be," Ridley Scott confirmed in an interview with HeyUGuys today. "You know the poem? I doubt you’ve ever been through it, have you? The poem’s a book, Paradise Lost! It sounds intellectual, but there’s a similarity to it, and that’s where it stops." Where this leaves Neill Blomkamp's Alien 5 remains to be seen, but it could be that that project is put aside for this new trilogy. Thoughts?
