Twentieth Century Fox today announced that the new ‘Alien prequel’ to be directed by Ridley Scott will be called Prometheus, and is due for release on March 9th 2012. Things have changed somewhat since the original ‘spacejockey’ concept. Sez Scott:
“While Alien was indeed the jumping off point for this project, out of the creative process evolved a new, grand mythology and universe in which this original story takes place. The keen fan will recognize strands of Alien’s DNA, so to speak, but the ideas tackled in this film are unique, large and provocative.”
No word yet on HR Giger’s role in all this.

According to his wife, Carmen Scheifele, the legendary HR Giger – creator of the original Alien xenomorph – will work with Ridley Scott again on the upcoming Alien prequel, Paradise. There will almost certainly be two movies, set in the world of the mysterious ‘space jockey’, (bottom pic).
Inevitably, Giger’s imaginings will loom out of the screen in 3D.
Scaring the bejesus out of a whole new generation.

Sorry for even bringing it up, eh, xenomorph-loving fashionistas. And Lady Gaga.
