With all of the announcements of upcoming movies being planned for 3D over the next few years, one would expect that whether or not an upcoming tentpole movie will be in 3D is going to replace the "PG-13 vs. R" question that most filmmakers tend to get. The latest movie that seems to be going that route is Ridley Scott and 20th Century Fox's planned Alien Prequel.

UK sci-fi site Shadow Locked had a chance to talk with art director Roger Christian who worked on Star Wars and Alien, and they asked him about the direction Scott might take with a prequel, the two of them having worked together on the original movie. Besides dropping the fact that it will be shot in 3D, he hinted at a possible trilogy in the franchise's future.

He told them: "Ridley's doing the next Alien in 3D. Ridley told me some of his ideas when we were here in Toronto. He has a very clear understanding of where this should go. They kind of stopped dead one of the greatest horror franchises there's ever been, and it had legs to go on. So I'm hoping he'll revive another three. The world certainly wants it, and the fans want it - everybody."

Christian met with Scott, but hasn't confirmed that he might be involved with the new prequel, reuniting the duo for the first time in over 30 years.

For those of us old enough to have been scared sh*tless when the original Alien came out, prepare to return to those times.

The way that letters form up just like on the original Alien trailer gave me the w*llies. This is gonna be brilliant. Can't wait. Think a certain mod here will be counting the days on the calendar !!

For those who haven't seen the trailer WATCH IT

 

[digitalbabe]

What 'certain mod' are you referring to?

 

[surfury]

What 'certain mod' are you referring to?

I wonder, it wouldn't be "Alienbabe" perchance now would it ? (that's a good nick in another world !!)

For me this is the 2nd most anticipated film of 2012....(first being TDKR)....Ridley Scott doing sci-fi again! Yes!
