Seit Ridley Scotts "Alien" 1979 in die Kinos kam, hat die SF-Horrorsaga um den ewigen Kampf von Lieutenant Ellen Ripley, gespielt von Sigourney Weaver, dank der nicht minder grandiosen Fortsetzungen "Aliens-Die Rückkehr" (1986), "Alien³" (1992) und "Alien: Die Wiedergeburt" (1997) Kultstatus erreicht....
Jeder Teil ist ein Meisterwerk für sich, mit der ganz persönlichen Handschrift des jeweiligen Regisseurs:
Ridley Scott,
James Cameron,
David Fincher und Jean-Pierre Jeunet...

Actor Lance Henriksen (Aliens, Alien3 and AVP: Aliens vs. Predator) has signed up to appear in the upcoming "Aliens vs. Predator" game, developed by Rebellion in the UK.
Lance Henriksen will appear as Karl Bishop Weyland, a descendent of Charles Bishop Weyland, the founder of the infamous Weyland-Yutani corporation from the Aliens universe. He will lend his likeness and voice to the production.
"They've made me look very good," said Lance Henriksen, "This is the first time I've been fully represented in a game, with my voice and how I look, and the Rebellion guys have done a great job. I might score from this game!"
"Aliens vs. Predator" is set for release in February 2010 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

Empire Online sprach mit Ridley Scott über das "Alien"-Prequel...
[...] Since the prequel was announced, it’s been assumed that it would tell the story of how those nasty, slavering xenomorphs came to land on LV-426 in the first place. But after listening to Sir Ridley, suddenly we’re not so sure...
"It’s a brand new box of tricks," said Sir Ridley. "We know what the road map is, and the screenplay is now being put on paper. The prequel will be a while ago. It’s very difficult to put a year on Alien, but [for example] if Alien was towards the end of this century, then the prequel story will take place thirty years prior."
Interesting. And damned intriguing, to boot. Presumably, rather than make a film about how those massive elephantine aliens (remember the giant pilot with his chest blown outwards in Sir Ridley’s original?) were decimated by the acid-blooded bastards, Sir Ridley and his writer, Jon Spaihts, have decided to reboot the story in an attempt to give it a human focus.
How this will fit in with existing series continuity remains, like much about the new Fox movie, to be seen, but with Sir Ridley on board, we’re sure that the Alien series is on course for a return to genuine quality. Frankly, though, we’re still a little surprised that the man who is arguably Britain’s greatest living director would return to the scene of his greatest triumph. So why do it?
"I never thought I’d look forward to a sequel," said Sir Ridley. "But a prequel is kind of interesting. I’m looking forward to doing that." [...]

Variety.com meldet...
Twentieth Century Fox is resuscitating its "Alien" franchise. The studio has hired Jon Spaihts to write a prequel that has Ridley Scott attached to return as director.
Spaihts got the job after pitching the studio and Scott Free, which will produce the film.
The film is set up to be a prequel to the groundbreaking 1979 film that Scott directed. It will precede that film, in which the crew of a commercial towing ship returning to Earth is awakened and sent to respond to a distress signal from a nearby planetoid. The crew discovers too late that the signal generated by an empty ship was meant to warn them.
The deal gives Fox another chance to keep the "Alien" franchise alive. There were three sequels to Scott's original, but it is the first time the director has set his mind on directing one.
Spaihts has become a go-to-guy for space thrillers. After Keanu Reeves became attached to his Warner Bros. sci-fi script "Shadow 19," Reeves hired Spaihts to write the space journey epic "Passengers," which is berthed at Morgan Creek. That script got Spaihts the meeting with Fox and Scott Free, and he won the job with an "Alien" reboot take that the studio and Scott loved.
Fox has separately hired him to rewrite "The Darkest Hour," which Timur Bekmambetov to produce with Tom Jacobson. Spaihts is writing "Children of Mars" for Disney and Scott Rudin, and he will follow by rewriting "St. George and the Dragon" for Sony and Red Wagon.

Nach einer großen Ungewissheit, ob Alien Colonial Marines überhaupt noch erscheint, bestätigt nun Randy Pitchford von Gearbox, dass der Titel 2010 veröffentlicht werden soll.
Ursprünglich ging man von einem Release noch in diesem Jahr aus, bevor dann zu hören war, dass SEGA einige Projekte gestoppt hat. Alien Colonial Marines gehörte aber nicht dazu. [...]

CS! sprach mit Tony Scott...
[...] The movie people are probably the most interested in is the rumored Untitled Alien Prequel that was discussed heavily last week. Scott had told another site that director Carl Rinsch was going to be directing it, but then just a few days ago Entertainment Weekly reported that in fact, no director had been signed and that 20th Century Fox was holding out hope that Tony's brother Ridley Scott would be directing. "I'm going to call a time out on that one," he halted us when asked about it today, though he still seemed optimistic things would work out. "I don't want to get caught in the middle. We're in process on that, but I don't have enough information to bring it to this table, but we're going to make it." [...]

Wie EW.com meldet, steht noch nicht sicher fest, wer beim "Alien"-Prequel Regie führen wird...
[...] When word leaked earlier this week that Ridley Scott was working on a prequel to his 30-year-old sci-fi classic, the original Alien, fans pounced on the news. But the project may have already hit its first speed bump: The filmmakers and Fox, the studio that owns the rights to the franchise, seem to have conflicting ideas about who should direct. Scott plans to produce and had handpicked commercial director Carl Erik Rinsch - whose ads for German electronics company Saturn are known for their futuristic flourishes - to make his feature debut. Rinsch's selection is complicated by the rumor that he's romantically involved with Scott's daughter, Jordan, also a commercial helmer. (Reps for both Jordan Scott and Rinsch did not respond to calls to confirm.) Sources at Fox, however, tell EW that the studio is not interested in greenlighting a prequel unless Scott himself directs. Scott and his reps didn’t respond to calls for comment. But Tony Scott, Ridley's brother and producing partner, was unequivocal in his support for Rinsch when asked about the project last weekend at the junket for his movie The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3. ''Carl is doing the prequel to Alien,'' Tony told a reporter from Collider.com, before adding: ''I'm excited because Ridley created the original and Carl is one of the family.'' Just which ''family,'' personal or professional or both, was unclear. [...]

Collider.com berichtet über das Reboot von "Alien" bei dem es sich doch tatsächlich um ein Prequel handelt...
[...] A few days ago, Bloody-Disgusting reported that 20th century Fox was going to remake "Alien" and director Carl Rinsch would be helming the movie. Immediately fandom exploded with venom. I think one of the main reasons is that the original is a classic, and 20th Century Fox hasn’t been making films of that caliber recently.
So at today’s junket for Tony Scott’s new film "The Taking of Pelham 123", I went up Tony after the press conference ended to ask him what was up with the remake.
The big news is he confirmed Carl Rinsch would be directing it and that it’s a prequel to his brother Ridley’s classic!
What Tony told me is after the jump:
Collider: 20th Century Fox is talking about remaking or redoing the original Alien. What’s going on with that?
Tony Scott: Yes, Carl Rinsch is going to do the prequel to Alien. He’s one of our directors at our company.
Collider: I’m going to be blunt about this. Fox has not been doing a great job recently with their movies. They haven’t been an artist friendly studio. Are you guys going to have some creative control and make this a kick-ass film?
Tony: Yes! But Fox is our home. They finace our production company.
Collider: And I’m very happy that you guys have the financing. But a lot of the films they’ve been doing at the studio level, they’ve been nickel and diming and not giving fandom what they want. So I guess my question for you is - are you a little nervous about reengaging the franchise or are you excited.
Tony: I’m excited cause Ridley created the original and Carl Rinsch is one of the family.
Collider: When do you envision this film getting in front of cameras?
Tony: Hopefully the end of the year.
Collider: Will it be a summer of 2011 movie?
Tony: Honestly, I don’t know. [...]

I mean, it's always been a matter of, really, if you can get the originator to do it that would be the greatest thing, so I've got my fingers crossed, all of them." [...]

Sega hat nun ein neues Alien Vs Predator-Spiel bestätigt, welche von Entwicklerstudio Rebellion entwickelt wird. Als Releasedatum wird momentan das Jahr 2010 genannt und auch weitere Details in Kürze sind versprochen worden. Informationen auf welche Plattformen das Spiel erscheinen wird sind derzeit nicht bekannt.
Der neue Titel hat eine "strategisch aktualisierte" Release-Planung für Sega’s andere beiden Alien Spiele, wenn auch nicht klar ist, was das bedeuten soll. "Das innovative neue AvP-Spiel bietet uns eine spannende Möglichkeit", sagte Sega West Chef Naoya Tsurumi. "Es ist eine tolle Ergänzung zu unserer wachsenden Alien-Franchise und die Neuerfindung des am meisten gehegten ikonischen Titel. Durch die Anpassung des Releases von unseren anderen Alien Titeln, wird Sega dafür sorgen, dass jeder Titel den hohen Erwartungen der Alien- und AVP-Fans gerecht wird."

MTV fragte Sigourney Weaver nach einem möglichen "Alien"-Sequel...
[...] Weaver confirmed that she and Scott have discussed re-teaming for a fifth film, "Both of us feel a kind of commitment to that woman. He’s as much responsible for who she is as I am." Then as she opined on the way the alien creature had been ruined in the recent films, Weaver’s comments got especially interesting.
"We’d have to go back to the drawing board on [the alien]," she said. "Ridley said that right away when we first talked about [a fifth film]."
And finally, the quote that’s gotten me mighty curious, "What we’re interested in is taking the character of Ripley and seeing what other science fiction story we can tell about someone who has lived several lives." [...]

Gearbox Präsident Randy Pitchford hat nun, entgegen den Gerüchten, gesagt, dass der Ego-Shooter Aliens: Colonial Wars noch nicht fallen gelassen wurde.
"Das Spiel ist nicht eingestampft", sagte Pitchford, "wir haben nur einige Änderungen vorgenommen, die auch andere Mitarbeiter erfordern."
Die richtige Geschichte scheint allerdings etwas anders auszusehen. Allem Anschein nach hat Gearbox nach dem Debakel von Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway ca. 25 Mitarbeiter entlassen, die auch an Aliens mitarbeiteten.
Inwiefern sich das letztendlich auf die Qualität des Spiels auswirkt, wird sich noch zeigen.

Collider.com sprach mit dem Produzenten John Davis, u.a. über die Zukunft von AVP...
[...] You were also involved with AVP and AVPR, which are two great franchises, but they haven’t been able to work as a joint franchise. When are we going to see them go separate? Or are we going to see a third AVP?
John Davis: Well, the Governor has mentioned to me that when he ceases to be Governor, if he doesn’t run for the Senate and all of that stuff, he’d like to do a movie or two again. And I don’t know, maybe we could restart the Predator franchise.
So if Arnold wanted to do it, it’s going to get made?
John Davis: Well we’d have to come up with a really good script and a really great angle on it, but Predator was the first movie I was ever involved with, so it’s always going to have a really soft spot in my heart.
So is the AVP franchise on hold for now?
John Davis: I think we’ve logically done what we could’ve done with the two AVP movies. But I think there’s something to go back to with Predator.
How do you see the character that Arnold plays to that franchise?
John Davis: I don’t know yet. But I think Predator is a great character and a great monster.
