>Last year, Fede Álvarez, who helmed “Alien: Romulus,” was in pre-production on the sequel when he suddenly exited the project. Did Álvarez step aside voluntarily, or was there friction behind the scenes with 20th Century—or even Ridley Scott? Some are pointing to the latter.>According to Sneider, 20th Century then approached Álvarez’s fellow ‘Evil Dead’ alum, Sebastien Vanicek, the director of the upcoming “Evil Dead Burn,” but talks eventually fell apart. Maybe Scott interfered again—who knows.>A previous The Hot Mic report claimed that Álvarez wanted to use David in his ‘Romulus’ sequel, but Scott denied him that privilege because he “might want to come back to the series,” and if so, “I want to be the one who brings him back and uses him.”
>>221199428God please let Ridley finish the David kinology.
>>221199428really was expecting David in Romulus and was super disappointed that they didnt follow up on his story. but overall i would trust Ridley more with that character since hes done a great job with it.
>>221199428Fede Alvarez, the Mexican who made a soulless Disney legacy sequel filled with endless out of place callbacks and fan service? No! Not Fede Alvarez, he is too talented to be set aside!
>>221199438This. I need closure to the David story. He is literally top 5 most interesting cinematic characters of the last 25 years
>>221199428Why the fuck does Ridley Scott keeping getting anything to do with the Alien films? Both Prometheus and Covenant were trash.
>>221199438This.
>>221199549Prometheus was great, Covenant was trash because the executives meddled and wouldn't let Scott cook
I'd love another Prometheus-like movie. The one that came after that, I couldn't get past the first 15 minutes. I'm sure ITS sequel was even worse. More horror than sci-fi. Prom. really raised the bar on the Alien franchise.
>>221200196Prometheus was worse than Covenant.
>>221199549Yeah, I dunno, it's annoying as fuck. He was never why the series was popular. His movies are incoherent trash, empty mystery boxes, and reboots pretending to be prequels. But he pretends he made this amazing decades long series when he's just taking credit for other people's efforts that made it popular. Then shitting all over the fans who want, you know, ALIENS not his random unrelated diarrhea and faggot androids
>gay robot trilogy will this boomer please retire
>>221199428yes please
Let him. I love when old people ruin their legacy
DavidChads we are so back!!
He won't stop until he has ruined every single good thing he ever made, huh?
>>221199438I'd rather have that than another Alien and Predator getting Marvelized
>>221199438I know, right? They're one of the few movies where I think the haters need to shut the fuck up because the David storyline is kino and Michael Fassbender is great at it
>>221199497I can't believe that most people would rather have that slop than Ridley Scott Prometheus sequel kino
>>221199428Plz no...
Not Ridley but you guys remember that Alien streaming show? That shit FUCKING SUCKED. Alien and Aliens was canned lightning in a bottle. Nobody directing today can do them justice, including that walking corpse Ridley.
>>221202742Alien Earth? I watched the first 3 episodes and it was okay, I guess
>>221202616There is literally nothing to David and he has no storyline. Oh wow, he's butthurt about being created and his daddy wasn't good enough for him boohoo. So he should kill and mutilate the only woman who gave a shit about him, kill all the engineers so no one can have any answers then create and breed billions of le angry black penis monsters because they're so cool and perfect and will kill all humans! All while David spouts poetry and ancient quotes to classical music. Wow, such amazing story. Bravo Ridley.
