According to Variety, 20th Century Fox has closed a deal for a new “Alien” film.

The film is expected to be separate from the “Prometheus” sequel from Ridley Scott.
20th Century Fox has closed a deal with director Neill Blomkamp to develop a new “Alien” movie.
Neill Blomkamp has been teasing a new film for quite some time and it has been driving the fans crazy. Just recently he posted a picture on Instagram of the “Alien” iconic creature, the xenomorph. It looks like the viral approval of the internet has once again set plans in motion for another film! I know that I’m excited.
Given that the film is supposedly separate from the “Prometheus” franchise, I wonder if this will be a continuation in the story, a reboot, or a part of a cinematic universe remaining separate but connecting the “Prometheus” films.
Many will agree that Neill Blomkamp is a perfect fit for directing the film and if it’s a reboot he will definitely give the franchise a fresh new look. I think we can all expect that the cinematography will be top notch based on his other sci-fi type films.
