ALIEN is dead. Vive the Prometheus.

After months of speculation, a stand off between Ridley Scott and Fox on budget and cast and rumblings that upcoming Alien prequel Scott was so broad that it would be divided into two films, they happened and called the whole thing off. Kind of.

The prequel Alien is now officially dead but instead is Prometheus, a project developed by Ridley Scott and Damon Lindelof using in terms of Scott, a little Alien DNA. What I understand from comments of Scott is that this is not a prequel at all and probably not even defined in the universe from abroad, but a totally original story of work some of the same themes were developed for the prequel. Once again in the words of Scott, the film is at "a new, larger mythology and the universe."

What do we know? Noomi Raptor (the girl with the Dragon Tattoo) is at the top with the second female character probably go Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie. And everything defined. But given the history of Prometheus, the film takes its title - Prometheus was the Titan who gave fire to humanity, unwittingly release of sadness and destruction on humans and being punished for its actions – I expect underlying thematic working a cautionary tale on the use and misuse of technology.
