Speaking with Empire, Álvarez confirmed that he and Sayagues are working on the script for the Alien: Romulus sequel. He said, “We’re excited about where it can go. We’ve almost checked all of the boxes of things that I want to see [in Romulus], and brought back a lot of the things I hadn’t seen in a while. Wherever we go now, we can go into uncharted waters. I think it’ll be so exciting to go with characters you know from this movie, to a place in the Alien franchise that we’ve never been before, and to discover things that you’ve never seen before.”

So he’s got the Easter Egg references out of his system then hopefully? Come on, a decent Alien film please! 🙂

    I feel like 4 was objectively bad. am I taking crazy pills or has it aged gracefully? guess I know what I’m watching this weekend.

      Well, I’m not sure if it was good, but it committed to turning it up to 11.

      Alien^3 insulted the ending of Aliens and felt like it was full of slightly lame choices.

      I saw it in the theatre on the opening night, and couple of times afterwards. I thought it was light, artsy fun. A pretty good movie with some awesome directional choices.

      I think it has aged well, especially after the newest 3 movies in the franchise.
