Earlier he said he had concepts and shit and Fox was going for it if he really wanted to do it and just now he posted this: http://instagram.com/p/zQwEQ0qhBq/

Um... So I think it's officially my next film. #alien

If there has to be another Alien film I can't think of a more perfect director to do it :monster:

I'm waiting until a good trailer until I make up my decision. I wasn't too amazed by the concepts I read about, tbh.

Well, luckily for you, I still had it open and loaded in a tab, so I just wrote up a transcription of it:


SW: "I would love to take Ripley out of, sort of, orbiting around in space and give a proper finish to what was such an excellent story. So, when someone like Neill Blomkamp suddenly said, 'Well, I'm interested in finishing the story.' I thought... my little ears perked up."

NB: "I want this film to feel like it is literally the genetic sibling of Aliens. So it's, Alien, Aliens, this movie."

SW: "Well, we started chatting on the set of Chappie almost right away (chuckles) about his love for these movies, and then he started to send me the artwork over the last year, and a lot of story ideas."

NB: "It's a Freudian kind of nightmare. That element, to me, is what is so appealing. You know to try to put the audience on the edge of their seat the whole time in a traditional monster stalking you, dark corridor way - I love that. And then when you mix in all of the design elements, and the life cycle of the Alien, you know, it's like, it's just a powderkeg of creativity for me."

SW: "I'm delighted that he is interested in doing this. I think it's a great series. It deserves a proper ending. I know the fans would love that. And uh, so I hope it works out."

Well thank god it's not cancelled. I hope they would compliment each other, and I'm more keen in understanding the Engineers too. Hopefully Alien 5 brings them in to some capacity.

I'm hoping so, I want to know more about the Engineers and what kind of sick monsters their black goo can make.
